+# MongoDB: Introduction
+
+MongoDB is not a relational database system like SQL, instead it is document-based which means you do not neeed to design database tables and schema, you are simply storing data as JSON and there is no transformation of the data. 
+
+Most of the notes on Mongo will introduce it within the context of Node.js backend. We will be sending Javascript objects and arrays to Mongo and returning them as JSON. 
+
+## Mongoose 
+
+Mongoose is a simple API for interacting with a Mongo database via Node.
