Gateway application generation

We will start by converting the monolithic application that we have generated into a microservice gateway application. 

Even though microservices are made up of different services inside, for end users it should be a single, unified product. There are a lot of services that are designed to work in a lot of different ways, but there should be a single entry point for users. Thus, we need a gateway application, since they form the frontend of your application. 

Segregate the internal contracts and services from external users. We may have application-level internal services that we shouldn't expose to external users, so these can be masked away. This also adds another level of security to the application.
