Seed the Database

To seed the database with initial data, add seed data in the ApplicationDbContext class. This could include default admin users, products, etc.

public class ApplicationDbContext : IdentityDbContext<ApplicationUser>
{
    // Your DbSet properties

    protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder builder)
    {
        base.OnModelCreating(builder);

        // Seed data here
        // Example:
        builder.Entity<Product>().HasData(
            new Product { Id = 1, Name = "Product1", Price = 10.0 },
            new Product { Id = 2, Name = "Product2", Price = 20.0 }
