    /**
     In EmberData a `Model` is a class defining the attributes and relationships
      of a specific resource `type` (model name). In this sense it represents a static "schema".

      Data for individual resources fetched from your API is presented
      to the UI via instances of the `Model`s you define.

      An instantiated `Model` is refered to as a `record`.

      When we refer to the `ModelClass` we are referring to the class definition
      and the static schema methods present on it.

      When we refer to a `record` we refer to a specific class instance presenting
      the resource data for a given `type` and `id`.

      ### Defining a Model

      ```app/models/person.js
      import Model, { attr, belongsTo, hasMany } from '@ember-data/model';

      export default Model.extend({
        name: attr(),

        dog: belongsTo('pet', { inverse: 'owners', async: false }),

        friends: hasMany('person', { inverse: 'friends', async: true }),
      });
      ```

      ### modelName convention

      By convention, the name of a given model (its `type`) matches the name
      of the file in the `app/models` folder and should be lowercase, singular
      and dasherized.

      @module @ember-data/model
      @main @ember-data/model
      @class Model
      @public
     */

    export { Model as default, attr, belongsTo, hasMany } from './-private';
