About
MySQL provides connectivity for client applications developed in .NET compatible programming languages with MySQL Connector/NET through a series of packages.
MySql.Data is the core package of Connector/NET. It is compatible with .NET Framework 4.6+ and .NET 6.0+ and provides classic MySQL protocol and MySQL X DevAPI capabilities.
More information at MySQL Connector/NET documentation.

string myConnectionString;
//set the correct values for your server, user, password and database name
myConnectionString = "server=127.0.0.1;uid=root;pwd=12345;database=test";
try
{
myConnection = new MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection(myConnectionString);
//open a connection
myConnection.Open();
// create a MySQL command and set the SQL statement with parameters
MySqlCommand myCommand = new MySqlCommand();
myCommand.Connection = myConnection;
myCommand.CommandText = @"SELECT * FROM clients WHERE client_id = @clientId;";
myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@clientId", clientId);
// execute the command and read the results
using var myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
{
while (myReader.Read())
{
var id = myReader.GetInt32("client_id");
var name = myReader.GetString("client_name");
