+
+## 🏗️ Architecture (SOLID)
+
+Mariavel is built with long-term maintainability in mind:
+
+- **Single Responsibility (SRP):** Business logic is decoupled into specialized Services and Repositories.
+- **Dependency Inversion (DIP):** Controllers depend on Abstractions (Interfaces), allowing for seamless swaps of database drivers.
+- **Open/Closed (OCP):** New database engines can be added by implementing the `DatabaseDriverInterface` without modifying existing core logic.
