✅ Migration-independent Database Seeding

Curious if EF has some sort of independent database seeding potential? I am kinda hoping to see a similar functionality to Laravel's Database Seeder where you can write the seed in a file which you can run at any time, regardless of whether or not your migrations are already ran. I find the HasDataHasData fucntiuonality inherently counterproductive as I don't want to re-run all migrations over and over just so I can work with my seed data.
