Register an "admin" user when running the c# mvc application

Question

good afternoon, I need some idea for a web system to automatically create a user Admin as soon as I run(open) the application.

that is, when running the application with a zeroed database, so that I do not need to register any user before logging in, the system already generates that user automatically when running.

am using Asp net MVC, in visual Studio 2017.

If you’re working with Code First can use Entity Seed. To enable it to perform on Nuget: Enable-Migrations

 protected override void Seed(ContosoUniversity.DAL.SchoolContext context)
    {
        //  This method will be called after migrating to the latest version.

        //  You can use the DbSet<T>.AddOrUpdate() helper extension method 
        //  to avoid creating duplicate seed data. E.g.
        //
        //    context.People.AddOrUpdate(
        //      p => p.FullName,
        //      new Person { FullName = "Andrew Peters" },
        //      new Person { FullName = "Brice Lambson" },
        //      new Person { FullName = "Rowan Miller" }
        //    );
        //
    }

Good afternoon Paulo. Take a look at the Entity Framework Seed
