How to get started?
- Log on to quickdatabasediagrams.com and create a new diagram.
- Ensure all your teammates are also logged in and invite them via email (Only one team member should do this step).
- Then you can start creating your model and share it later.
📝Instructions
Create a data model (a.k.a Entity Relationship Diagram) using the CrowFoot Notation and based on the user stories you have defined for your project. This action can also help you evaluate the scope you have defined for it.
- If you notice that you need too many tables and that making transactions for each one of them will take more time than available, you can adjust the functionalities you will include in your final project.
- Your project must have authentication, meaning you will probably have a User table for the credentials.
- Ask yourself: Which things do I need to add, remove, delete, or update on my project? This is a great tool for identifying the necessary tables.
- How will those tables connect or relate with each other? One to one? One to many? Many to many?
- Remember that many-to-many relationships require an additional (pivot) table as a connector.
Once you have finished the model, share the link in public for better learning.
