Neurelo Schema Editor

Overview

The Neurelo Schema Language (NSL) is used to define entities, properties, relationships, and constraints of the schema definition for your project. The language is based on the JSON Schema spec, with added capabilities to accurately describe the relationships and constraints within the schema. NSL is a programmable representation of users data model for that specific project. Neurelo supports JSON and YAML codification of data models.

In Relational Databases (RDBMS), data models are referred to as E-R (Entity-Relation) models comprised of tables, columns, column types, relationships across tables, constraints (e.g. unique, not null)

In Document Databases such as MongoDB, data models include collections and document structures
