How to Run .NET (dotnet) EF globally

I face error when running dotnet-ef:

plaintext
Could not execute because the specified command or file was not found.
Possible reasons for this include:
  * You misspelled a built-in dotnet command.
  * You intended to execute a .NET program, but dotnet-ef does not exist.
  * You intended to run a global tool, but a dotnet-prefixed executable with this name could not be found on the PATH.

The solution, add PATH to system environment. So dotnet-ef can be run globally:

bash
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.dotnet/tools/"

Try to run dotnet-ef again, then viola! ✨🦄
