Can you explain some of the design?

I.e. backend stuff

Sure thing!

The application architecture is simple - it's an n-tier app (front end > business layer > SQL server).

The business layer is .NET/C#. I use Entity Framework as an ORM and then migrate the slower bits to Dapper + raw SQL whenever I need to trade maintainability for performance.

I'd be happy to expand on anything specific you're curious about :)
