Add Dapper to the list

[Dyako Rebwar Mahmood Baram]

Dapper is a micro ORM which is alternative to Entity Framework core with better performance than EF

[Andrzej Bakun]

On top of that, if that list suggests design patterns as CQRS, dapper (or similar) is IMHO a necessity for the queries. First of all EF in this case adds a significant overhead when creating entities which is not need (event with AsNoTracking()). Also EF creates sometimes really baffling queries, when a bit more complex scenarios come into play. In such cases, ability to write custom queries is really useful and queries can run much faster with less resource drain..
