Section 3: Build Strategy
Development Approach
Meridian Console follows an iterative development approach with a focus on delivering a functional MVP before expanding to additional features.
Build Principles
- - Ship early, iterate often
- - Microservices from day one
- - Contract-first API design
- - Security by default
- - Observability built-in
Technology Decisions
| Area | Choice | Rationale |

| Runtime | .NET 10 | Performance, tooling, team expertise |
| Frontend | Blazor WASM | Full-stack C#, SignalR integration |
| Database | PostgreSQL | Reliability, JSON support, cost |
| Messaging | RabbitMQ + MassTransit | Proven, .NET-friendly |
| Container Orchestration | Kubernetes (Talos) | Industry standard, declarative |
