# Backend Architecture
The current backend is based on AdonisJS v6. Use the official AdonisJS folder structure as the default baseline:
https://v6-docs.adonisjs.com/guides/getting-started/folder-structure
## Default Folders
| Folder | Purpose |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `app/` | Application code: controllers, services, middleware, policies, validators, and domain logic. |
| `start/` | Boot lifecycle files such as routes, kernel setup, env loading, and event registration. |
| `config/` | Runtime configuration for AdonisJS and installed packages. |
| `database/` | Migrations and seeders. |
| `bin/` | Entrypoints for server, console, and tests. |
| `public/` | Static files and generated public assets. |
| `tests/` | Backend tests. |
## Basic Flow
```txt
start/routes.ts
-> controller
-> validator / policy
-> service
-> model / database / external service
```
Controllers should handle HTTP concerns. Services should hold business logic. Validators should own request validation. Policies and abilities should own authorization.
## Rules
- Follow AdonisJS conventions first.
- Keep HTTP logic out of services.
- Keep business logic out of controllers.
- Validate request input before calling services.
- Use policies or abilities for protected operations.
