The project follows a modular architecture consisting of the following components:

• Applications: Core logic and functionality.
• Data: Data storage and retrieval, integrating with SQL Server.
• Utilities: Common utilities and helper classes.
• ViewModel: Structures to represent data for efficient presentation.

• .NET 6.0: The project is developed using the latest .NET framework for modern and efficient development.
• SQL Server: Database management for storing and retrieving data.
• Quartz: Job scheduling for periodic tasks.
• Docker: Containerization for easy deployment and scalability.

The project is divided into three main components:

1. API: Handles the backend logic and provides an interface for client applications.

• Docker and container management:

  

• Swagger Api

  

2. User App (MVC): Web application for end-users to interact with news articles, comments, and other features.

   

3. API App (MVC): Web application specifically for API interactions, providing a developer-friendly interface.
