Generally should break on the type. That is generally followed in various database documentations. |

Breaking up into sections sounds good - some specific separate pages are also a good idea for larger topics (e.g. spatial, full-text search), with links from this main "function translation" page.
I'd vote for thematic sections rather than by type. There are potentially a huge number of types, and it could be quite bewildering to users who know they want to do something with binary types, but have no idea which .NET type is the right one.
| DateTime.Now | datetime('now', 'localtime') | ||
| DateTime.Today | datetime('now', 'localtime', 'start of day') | ||
| DateTime.UtcNow | datetime('now') | ||
| dateTime.AddDays(value) | datetime(@dateTime, @value \|\| ' days') |

I used lower-case (and the suffix value) to represent instance members. Syntax highlighting would also help reinforce that, but I’d have to add it manually since these can’t be code blocks.

| title: Built-in Functions - SQLite Database Provider - EF Core | |||

Maybe "Function translations" or even just "Translations"? Specifically for Sqlite not everything here is "built-in" (i.e. all the ef_ stuff).
I'd also link to the spatial page from here when that arrives (this way this page covers all translations), and that's not built-in either.

I had that, but changed to match Smit’s docs. Happy to change back.
Definitely needs a link to spatial.

Built-in functions is right one. Most of them are truly C# functions in LINQ side. Plus, I am gonna add text at the start that definition is bit blurry. The built-in part in this page is that EF Core provides this function translations rather than use defining it. (Comes in the box)

Breaking on type is not exactly individual types but rather groups - numeric/ datetime/ string etc. Anyway I can update when I "add" other providers. |
