### Architecture

This project follows **Domain-Driven Design (DDD)** principles with a clean architecture:

- **Domain Layer**: Contains business logic, entities, and domain services
- **Application Layer**: Orchestrates use cases and coordinates domain objects
- **Infrastructure Layer**: Implements external service integrations
- **Presentation Layer**: Handles user interaction and display

The architecture emphasizes:
- **Separation of Concerns**: Each layer has a specific responsibility
- **Dependency Inversion**: Domain and application layers don't depend on infrastructure
- **SOLID Principles**: Single responsibility, open/closed, and interface segregation
- **Test-Driven Development**: Comprehensive test coverage at all layers
