Have you developed multi-layered .NET applications? [with a focus on loose coupling, high cohesion, and separation of concerns?]
.NETArchitectureSOLID
β Yes β layered .NET solutions with explicit separation of concerns are exactly how I structure applications.

Technical detail
- π§± Typical solution layout β Presentation (Web API/MVC or Angular-facing endpoints) β Application (use cases/orchestration, DTOs, validation) β Domain (entities, value objects, business rules, domain services) β Infrastructure (EF Core/ADO.NET, external services, messaging, storage).
- π Loose coupling β dependency inversion with interfaces owned by the inner layers, constructor injection, mediator/handler-style use cases, events or domain notifications instead of direct cross-layer calls, and no leaking of EF entities across the API boundary (DTO mapping instead).
- π― High cohesion β each layer and class has one reason to change: controllers only translate HTTP, handlers only orchestrate a use case, domain objects own their invariants, repositories only persist. Cross-cutting concerns (logging, caching, retries, transactions, auth) are implemented once as middleware, filters or decorators.
- π§ͺ Testability β the domain and application layers are unit-testable without a database, integration tests cover handlers with a real container and in-memory/SQLite database, and API contract tests validate the endpoints wire correctly.
π Because the boundaries are explicit, teams can grow the system safely: new features are additive, infrastructure can be replaced, and code reviews focus on business rules instead of plumbing.
