+# Software Architecture Documentation (arc42)
+
+## About this document
+**Purpose.** This document follows the **arc42** template to describe, communicate, and evolve the architecture of the system in a clear, lightweight, and practical way. For background on arc42, see the official overview and documentation.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Introduction and Goals
+Briefly explains why the system exists and which forces shape the architecture (business goals, functional scope, quality goals, stakeholders).  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 1.1 Requirements Overview
+Summarize key functional requirements or link to your product/backlog sources; keep this concise and focused on what drives architecture.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 1.2 Quality Goals
+Capture 3–5 top quality attributes (e.g., performance, security, evolvability) that guide trade-offs and decisions.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 1.3 Stakeholders
+List stakeholders (roles, responsibilities, concerns) whose needs the architecture must satisfy.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+---
+
+## 2. Architecture Constraints
+Record constraints (technical, organizational, legal, standards, runtime environments, toolchains) that restrict options and influence design.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+---
+
+## 3. System Scope and Context
+Defines what’s in/out of scope and how the system interacts with its environment (users, neighboring systems, external services).  
+**Add your content here…**

+
+## 5. Building Block View
+Explains the static decomposition of the system into building blocks (modules/components/subsystems), their responsibilities, and dependencies—the “floor plan”.

+### 5.3 Level 3 – Internal Structure (as needed)
+Detail important components (data structures, classes, packages) when necessary for understanding or change.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+---
+
+## 6. Runtime View
+Describes significant scenarios to illustrate behavior and interactions of building blocks (sequence/flow, error paths, non-functional aspects).  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 6.x Scenario <Name>
+State context, triggers, participating blocks, message/interaction flow, and notable variations.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+---
+
+## 7. Deployment View
+Maps software artifacts to infrastructure (nodes, regions, runtime platforms), including redundancy, scaling, and operational concerns.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 7.1 Infrastructure Overview
+Present environments (dev/test/stage/prod), regions/zones, and high-level topology.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 7.2 Deployment Mapping
+Describe which artifacts run where; capture capacity, sizing assumptions, and elasticity.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 7.3 Cross-Environment Differences
+List relevant differences (configs, data stores, integrations, security postures).  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+---
+
+## 8. Cross-Cutting Concepts
+Central rules & approaches that apply across the system (domain model, architecture patterns, security, logging, error handling, configuration, i18n, etc.).  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.1 Domain & Data
+Share ubiquitous language, key domain concepts, data ownership, and data lifecycle.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.2 Security
+Threat model highlights, authn/authz, secrets handling, crypto, secure defaults.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.3 Observability & Operations
+Logging, metrics, tracing, health checks, dashboards, incident response hooks.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.4 Error Handling & Resilience
+Policies for retries, timeouts, backoff, circuit breakers, idempotency.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.5 Configuration & Feature Flags
+How configuration is structured, validated, and delivered; flag strategy.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.6 Performance & Caching
+Hot paths, caching layers, data locality, performance budgets and profiles.  
+**Add your content here…**
+
+### 8.7 Code & API Guidelines
