The general setup of a model is a straight forward process. We're using builders to create a model. Each builder provides access to the different stages of model creation. The following steps are currently available:

• RegisterDependencies use this method to include other builders. We're going to see an example later.

• AddCoreElements is used to add low-level and independent components to the metadata (for example languages).

• AddClasses is used to create the classes and foreign keys needed later on in AddPaths.

• AddPaths is used to establish paths between the classes. Foreign keys are created here too.

• AddProperties is used to create any properties not needed for paths and to create relations (which are depending on paths).

• AddLayouts gets called when all properties and relations are available. In this step we define the visual representation of our metadata.

• PostFinalize can be used to finalize the model. Some of the internal builders of Quino use this step to create fallbacks in captions for example.
