### Does Directus support Mongo/NoSQL?
|
||||
|
||||
Not currently. Directus has been built specifically for wrapping _relational_ databases. While we could force Mongo to
|
||||
use tables, columns, and rows via Mongoose object modeling, that approach of "faking" a relational structure in a non-structured environment like Mongo doesn't make a lot of sense. We do realize many users are interested in this feature, and will continue to explore its possibility.

### Why haven't you added this feature, or fixed that issue yet?

Directus is primarily a free and open-source project, maintained by a small core team and community contributors who

donate their time and resources.

Our platform is feature-rich, however we strictly adhere to our [80/20 Rule](/contributing/introduction) to avoid a

a lower prioritization.
