When developing apps, it's common to wish to map items to either comparable or different kinds. Why do you frequently require this? The database tables of the employed database are typically mapped with the models (also known as entities) in an application. As a result, there is frequently a discrepancy between the model class properties and the data transfer object class properties. You may run into issues because of having to write a lot of boilerplate code to convert instances of disparate types. A large application, like an ERP, could require a lot of models and data transfer object classes. Writing code to perform the mapping manually would be time-consuming. Here, programs like AutoMapper can be useful.
In this article, I will try to cover a new concept in MVC: AutoMapper. AutoMapper is used to reduce the complexity we find when binding the model and communicating with entities.
