What is Convention-based Registration (Assembly Scanning)?
Updated Apr 28, 2026
Short answer
Convention-based registration automates wiring by scanning compiled assemblies and matching implementations to interfaces based on naming rules.
Deep explanation
Instead of manually writing 500 container.Register() lines, you instruct the container: 'Find all classes ending in Repository, and register them against their matching I[Name]Repository interface'. This scales effortlessly in massive enterprise codebases.
