In this chapter, we're going to talk a little bit about how document databases work, how
0:07
can you do queries into these weird structured JSON records and that kind of thing. And then we're going to focus on MongoDB's native query syntax.
0:18
This is going to be mostly a sort of for your information type of thing.
0:23
You don't need to go in there and do complex queries in the MongoDB shell or in its native
0:29
query language for your applications. However, it will be very useful for you to be able to open
0:35
things like Studio 3T or the Mongo shell and ask questions about your data. And for that, you'll
0:41
need to use this query syntax we're going to talk about here. But programmatically for your Python
0:47
code, we will be using pydanic and beanie and async and await. So this is important, but not
0:54
the main way that you're going to work with MongoDB. Still understanding what's possible in
0:58
and the query syntax is a really important part of getting good with MongoDB.
