• Architecture: The solution adopts principles from Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design (DDD)
• Target Framework: .NET Core 8
• EF Core 8 with PostgreSQL
• Validation through FluentValidation
• For security, JWT Bearer authentication is configured
• Testing is implemented using xUnit with Testcontainers for PostgreSQL

For local development we need a developer certificate which can be setup with dotnet dev-certs https --trust.

1. Create .env file by duplicating .env_template located in project root

2. Start infrastructure (database etc) docker compose up -d

3. Start the application

   • Option 1 - CLI: dotnet run --project TaskSync
   • Option 2 - VSCode: Hit F5

4. Open the application

   • Swagger-UI: https://localhost:7190/swagger/index.html
   • Database-Explorer: Use a tool like pgAdmin - username=postgres, pw=example, db=TaskSync

docker compose up -d docker build -t tasksync -f Dockerfile_Local . docker run -it -p 7190:7190 --name tasksync-container-local tasksync

This scripts allows to update the initial migration script.

sh _reset_db.sh

dotnet build TaskSync.sln

Generate token:

curl --request POST \ --url 'https://dev-ng4mbx4gds2o61r1.eu.auth0.com/oauth/token' \ --header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \ --data grant_type=client_credentials \ --data client_id=<CLIENT_ID> \ --data client_secret=<CLIENT_SECRET> \ --data audience=https://tasksync.api.de/api \ --data scope=openid

Copy the token and authorize in Swagger UI.

The application exposes a basic health check endpoint used for monitoring and readiness probes: GET /api/health

• Use SecretManager for development
