-## Running locally
-
-This project uses the newer `.slnx` format instead of the traditional `.sln` file. You can open it using **Visual Studio 2022** or newer.
-
-> [!TIP]
-> If you encounter the following error when trying to open the `.slnx` file:
->
-> > The selected file is not a valid solution file.
->
-> It's likely that the **Solution File Persistence Model** feature needs to be enabled. To do this:
->
-> 1. Open **Visual Studio**.
-> 2. Go to **Tools > Options**.
-> 3. In the left-hand menu, select **Environment > Preview Features**.
-> 4. Enable the checkbox for **Use Solution File Persistence Model**.
-> 5. Click **OK** and restart Visual Studio.
->
-> Once the solution file opens, you can set the desired project as the **Startup Project** (right-click on the project > *Set as Startup Project*) and start debugging or running as usual.
