## Notes

- "Population model" etc are place holders, will need to be tweaked once we have a better idea of how stuff will be displayed
- Leave descriptions as comma separated lists for the time being
- consistency of features -> also to be done later
- ACTION: remove `model_description_language`
- include `biophysical_level` also for standards
- in general, relationship can be unidirectional
- relation should live on tool that provides the functionality
- can add tests/warnings to flag bidrectional tools
- try to organise the data in such a way that the JS only displays/filters
- YAML to JSON, since JS prefers JSON
- Marcel looked into [Cytoscape](https://js.cytoscape.org/)
- the JS does the heavy lifting, one line of JS with styling to display
- good example: http://www.wineandcheesemap.com/ + https://github.com/cytoscape/wineandcheesemap
- Next meeting in 2 weeks at 1400 UTC, 31st Jan
