[.NET 8] Dependency Injection on an N-Tier solution

[dday9]

I am creating a solution that has an API (Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web), domain (Microsoft.NET.Sdk), and MVC projects (Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web).

In my domain I have two classes that look like this:

public class ApplicationUserQuery
{

    private readonly string _connectionString;

    public ApplicationUserQuery(string connectionString)
    {
        _connectionString = connectionString;
    }

    // ...
}

public class ApplicationUserService
{

    private readonly ApplicationUserQuery _applicationUserQuery;

    public ApplicationUserService(ApplicationUserQuery applicationUserQuery)
    {
        _applicationUserQuery = applicationUserQuery;
    }

    // ...
}

To use the classes in my API project I am doing the following:

var applicationDatabaseConnectionString = builder.Configuration.GetConnectionString("ApplicationDatabase");
if (applicationDatabaseConnectionString == null)
{
    throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(applicationDatabaseConnectionString));
}
builder.Services.AddScoped(_ => new ApplicationUserQuery(applicationDatabaseConnectionString));
builder.Services.AddScoped<ApplicationUserService>();

This works, but it seems like a lot of boilerplate just for two classes. Is there anyway to simplify this using the built-in .NET core stuff? I'm wanting to avoid using a 3rd party library like Ninject because of issues we recently started running into at work. This solution I'm building is a personal project.
