[FLOW3-general] Two questions for many-to-many associations

["Christian Müller (FLOW3 Team)"]

Hi Indira,

yes indeed just create a new model for your relation, the owning and 
inverse side are defined by you so it is totally up to your domain model 
on which side it makes most sense (probably the side you are accessing 
from the most). Also for the second question you should create a model 
and then the reposistory. There is no repository without a model.

Best,
Christian
