Hangfire enables background jobs in .NET projects by reusing existing backend code and dependency injection pipelines. While it shares the default DI container by default, you can implement a custom JobActivator to provide a separate service provider for jobs. This allows you to override specific service implementations for background jobs while copying over the rest of the default services. When using a custom activator, you must manually register BackgroundJobClient and RecurringJobManager that Hangfire requires.
