Schema with array of objects
Is it efficient to have an array of objects? Let's say that I have a task with the field sub tasks, and I want those to be objects with x,y,z fields and each task can handle multiple sub taks.

Thank you!
My preference for handling subtasks is to just make them regular tasks, but with a reference to their parent task via a field that stores the parent task's ID.
Collecting the task and all of its subtasks is pretty quick as long as you have an index on the field containing the parent task ID.
Ohh I like that approach. Ill give it a try. Thanks!
