Today we’re happy to announce the availability of the release candidate of TypeScript 3.6. This release candidate is intended to be fairly close to the full release, and will stabilize for the next few weeks leading up to our official release. 

Quick nod to IDataErrorInfo

This interface used to be used for validation but was replaced by INotifyDataErrorInfo. The new interface provides a much nicer API which is easier to code against and better performance. If you are still using the old interface, its time to make the change. 

The Find method on DbSet uses the primary key value to attempt to find an entity tracked by the context.
If the entity is not found in the context then a query will be sent to the database to find the entity there.
Null is returned if the entity is not found in the context or in the database.
