I'm requesting an official migration guide to help projects upgrade the template. Currently, I'm on version 10.0.1 and would benefit from an official migration guide to version 11.0.0. Based on my review of the release notes, it appears that some components like MediatR may have been replaced or changed in the newest version (due to commercial stuff). Therefore, it would be helpful if there was either an automatic upgrade process or at least a comprehensive guide for upgrading the template. This would help ensure a smooth migration path and reduce the risk of missing important changes or breaking updates.
