InformationSet and CategorySet

InformationSet and CategorySet are two common tools used to manage data. These two methods reduce development time significantly.

InformationSet automatically creates interfaces for data entry controlled by a preconfigured validation matrix. This is a single database table managed by an XML file where all database fields are defined separately with parameters like

1. Database attributes
2. Data Input Type (Text Box, Text Area, File Input, etc.)
3. Define the validation.
4. Render an interface in the admin panel for Add, Modify, and View.

InformationSet can adjust when the definition of a field changes. In that case, the database user needs the necessary permissions.

An InformationSet can be linked with other InformationSets or CategorySets for joining, and it also creates linked input tags like Drop Down and Check Box, etc.

CategorySet works similarly to InformationSet, but it specifically works to manage recursive parent-child relations. Generally, it is used to categorize any InformationSet data.

A rich library of functions has been developed to work with InformationSet and CategorySet.
