The type or namespace name 'SqlServer' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore'

I am trying to configure my .NET Core Entity Framework app to use SQL Server, but I can't seem to access the namespace.

Startup.cs (origin of the error)

using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer;

Project.json

"dependencies": {
    "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer": "1.1.0"
}

I have run dotnet restore successfully.

If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be lovely.

That's because there is no namespace "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer". Everything related to SQL Server is in the "Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore" namespace. See for yourself: https://github.com/aspnet/EntityFramework/tree/dev/src/Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer.
