Helpdesk Project Structure

Audience

Developers, QA, support and architects.

The Helpdesk project is a single web project targeting .NET 8 with direct references to Shared Kernel and Contracts.

Area	Verified responsibility
Root	Startup, project dependencies and runtime configuration
Api	Minimal route mappings, request/response records and handler logic
Application	Tenant-context abstraction and domain validation exception
Domain	Canonical entities, enums, value objects and lifecycle snapshot
Infrastructure	EF Core mapping, outbox store, activity helpers, document client, migrations and development seed
Backfill	Compatibility migration reader, mapper, upsert runner, validation and smoke source

The project does not split these layers into separate assemblies, so folder boundaries are organizational rather than compiler-enforced.

Future assembly separation, ownership boundaries and whether backfill tooling remains in the runtime project require confirmation.
