    Community Content And Media Model

    The linked schema confirms that Family Shapes includes a real content and community system. Forums branch into threads and posts, blog posts branch into comments, resources stand on their own, and media albums link to media files through join rows.

    Note

    Donor Boundary and Health Model

    The donor surface is backed by a distinct donor profile model that connects privacy settings, health updates, and donor-recipient relationship state instead of treating donor controls as simple account preferences.

    Note

    Donor Portal

    Comprehensive documentation of the Donor Portal feature

    Note

    Donor Profile And Connection Model

    The donor layer is real in the schema, not just the UI. `donor_profiles` stores donor-specific identity, privacy, and health fields, while `donor_recipient_connections` tracks the relationship state between donor profiles, organizations, and recipient-side users.

    Organization and Oversight Model

    The clinic and cryobank layer depends on organizations as the tenant and oversight anchor, tying professional users to shared operational views, people records, and family relationship context.

    Note

    Organization Membership And Oversight Model

    The remote schema makes the institutional layer much clearer: organizations connect to memberships, invitations, user profiles, groups, family trees, persons, and donor-recipient operations. That is a stronger SaaS and coordination story than the earlier editorial model captured.

    Relationship Graph And Access Model

    The linked Supabase schema shows Family Shapes as a graph product with explicit access control. Family trees can belong to groups or organizations, persons join trees through membership rows, connections link people, and collaborator plus invitation tables govern who can work inside a sensitive tree.

    Note

    Relationship Graph Core

    Family Shapes centers the product on family trees, people, and connections, then layers collaboration and invitations on top so sensitive relationship graphs can be explored and maintained safely.
