By: ChatGPT (chat.openai.com)

The schema for a blog’s database will depend on the specific needs and requirements of the application. However, here is an example of a schema for a basic blog database:

1. User schema: This schema will contain information about the users who are using the blog application. It will include fields such as:
   • id (unique identifier)
   • username
   • email
   • password
   • role (admin, user, etc.)
2. Post schema: This schema will contain information about the blog posts that users create. It will include fields such as:
   • id (unique identifier)
   • title
   • body
   • author (foreign key to the user schema)
   • created_at
   • updated_at
3. Comment schema: This schema will contain information about the comments that users leave on blog posts. It will include fields such as:
   • id (unique identifier)
   • post_id (foreign key to the post schema)
   • author (foreign key to the user schema)
   • body
   • created_at
   • updated_at

This is just a basic example, and additional schemas and fields can be added based on the needs of the application. For example, you may want to include a schema for categories or tags or add more fields to the user schema for user profiles.
