Team document

How team member and testimonial data is modeled in the project — inline on projects and as standalone testimonial documents.

There is no standalone team document type in this project. Team membership is modeled in two places:

Inline on Project

Each project document carries an inline team[] array and a mentor object. This is the authoritative record of who worked on a specific project.

Testimonial document

The testimonial document type stores quotes from students and industry contacts. A testimonial can optionally reference a project via the project field.

Project team fields

The team and mentor fields live on the Project document under the Team tab. See the Project document page for full field documentation.
