Which would be the scala way of building a modular/plugin based architecture application?
Use https://github.com/moditect/layrry which is based on Java Modules. Not tried yet. Sbt does not recognize module-info.java which is essential for it to work. Possible solution is implement an Sbt Plugin. But, I don't know if at the end this would work in development mode which is important.

typelevel
Coming back to ZIO, besides learning the operators which ZIO has, there is not much to it and you have to embrace calling ZIO.x everywhere. The Layers in ZIO 2.0 are excellent and I believe that the creators want to trick us to write good OOP and we are one macro away from Springs Autowire. Perhaps even macwire is up to speed already, I didn't check for a long time.

Why no scala native IOC containers?
There is: https://github.com/softwaremill/macwire
You can have IoC without using a DI framework. You just pass the arguments manually. I've found that it works really well. If however that's not your preference there are a couple DI frameworks in scala such as: https://github.com/softwaremill/macwire and https://izumi.7mind.io/distage/index.html

Implement the application around https://github.com/softwaremill/macwire and hope the wiredInModule feature (which support dynamic loading) would be ported to Scala 3 soon.

Macwire alternatives for scala 3
Arguing for Macwire in Scala 3 is moot anyway, because it won't be available there: https://github.com/softwaremill/macwire/commit/e9281111d78a1beeb8950f367be18cbb67aef9fe

Structuring Code with ZIO & ZLayers
One easy reason is that macwire won't be available for Scala 3 (https://github.com/softwaremill/macwire#scala3) 😉
