## What it is
Wolverine is a next-generation .NET mediator and message bus framework for building robust event-driven server-side applications. It provides messaging across many transports, persistent inbox/outbox support, and an in-memory command bus for asynchronous processing.

## Use cases
- build event-driven microservices in .NET
- send messages between services over transports like Azure Service Bus or SQS
- implement transactional outbox messaging
- run in-memory command bus for async and parallel processing
- replace MediatR with a faster mediator

## When to choose
- you are building .NET server-side applications with messaging or event-driven architecture
- you need durable inbox/outbox semantics across multiple transports
- you want a mediator and message bus with strong performance and middleware support

## When to avoid
- you are not on the .NET ecosystem
- you need a simple lightweight queue client without a framework
- you require stable non-alpha 6.0 features before general availability

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: message-queue, rpc, middleware, web-framework
- domain: backend, microservices, web-development
- platform: dotnet, cross-platform
- tags: mediator, message-bus, outbox, event-driven, csharp, asynchronous-processing, command-bus, messaging
