Subcategories
Moving over from #general where it was recommended to use a
parentfield to the
categoriescollection, which is a
relationto the collection itself to add subcategories. While this would work, it would be quite confusing within the UI itself, right, as editors would not be easily able to determine which are subcategories and which top-level categories they belong to (from the main collection screen).
You could either add another field to denote the type (top-level/sub) or create an entirely different collection for sub categories. Both would be fine approaches.

{
