The docs seem to indicate you do not store properties on relationships? Is that right? Then why call it a graph database when it is really an RDF store?

- marknadal 9y agoYou can do this, but it is not a built in primitive (like it is in Neo4j). We chose to do this because the majority of edges are usually directed, and we wanted to keep the base system as small as possible (all of gun is only about 12KB). It is easy to create "edge" nodes that store relationship properties, but nobody has created a full feature extension/framework for this yet, but I expect one will be built because this is a very useful feature to have.
