Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's Zod schema structure and the LinkML proposal in this issue. Determine the scope of converting existing schemas and whether backward-compatible TypeScript generation is required; done would require an agreed adoption plan and implementation scope.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The Zod schema lacks native interoperability with Semantic Web standards, Knowledge Graphs, Linked Data.

Describe the solution you'd like

Could you consider adopting https://linkml.io/ schema which addresses the problem natively, and allows users to combine (import) linkml data models from different vendors (import mitre/attack)?

Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatives include adopting semantic web frameworks (OWL/RDF/SHACL) but these technologies are too complex for Data Modelers - Linkml is bridge to those web frameworks anyway.

Additional context - Cost/Benefit

Linkml Benefit:

Linkml Cost

  • Learn Linkml
  • Convert Zod Schema to Linkml Schema
  • For backward compatibility - a linkml-zod-generatormay need to be written to generate TypeScript classes. There is a linkml-typescript-generator already.
