How do I model data in Firestore for my application?

Modeling data in Firestore involves structuring your data in collections and documents. What type of application are you building?

I'm building a social media app. Should I use subcollections?

Yes, subcollections can be useful for organizing related data, like user posts or comments. Do you need help with specific data relationships?

Yes, how should I handle user profiles and their posts?

You can create a 'users' collection with documents for each user, and then a 'posts' subcollection within each user document to store their posts.

That makes sense! What about querying this data efficiently?

For efficient querying, consider indexing your fields and using Firestore's built-in querying capabilities to filter and sort data.
