connect my ASP.NET web application's entity framework database to sql server

Hi guys, I am new to asp.net mvc.

I'm following this documentation and trying to do some learning.

https://docs.asp.net/en/latest/tutorials/your-first-aspnet-application.html

I found that the tutorial uses an integrated sql server express database to store data.

But I want to connect to my local sql server database.

The connection string is: Data Source=WAES-YAE;Initial Catalog=WebApp;Integrated Security=False;User ID=sa;Password=********;

What do I need to do if I want the entity framework to work with my local db?

just replace the ConnectionString property is appsettings.json file?

please help...

thank you.
