Hey SQL enthusiasts! ? I'm currently working on an assignment and could use some expert guidance. My task involves creating a database for a social media platform similar to Facebook. I'm struggling with designing the database schema to store user profiles, posts, comments, and likes.

What tables would you suggest for the user profiles, and what essential attributes should be included?
How would you structure the tables for user posts, including the relationships with user profiles?
When it comes to comments on posts, what would be an effective way to organize the database schema?
Lastly, how would you model the "likes" feature for both posts and comments?
Your insights and expertise would be incredibly valuable to me as I navigate this assignment. Thanks a bunch! ?

Hello! ? Designing a database for a social media platform akin to Facebook involves creating key tables. For user profiles, I suggest a "Users" table with attributes like `UserID`, `Username`, `FirstName`, `LastName`, and more. User posts can be managed in a "Posts" table with `PostID`, `UserID` (foreign key), `PostContent`, and `PostDate`. Comments on posts are efficiently organized in a "Comments" table, linking to posts and users. To handle likes for both posts and comments, establish a "Likes" table with `LikeID`, `PostID` (foreign key), `CommentID` (foreign key), and `UserID` (foreign key). Enforce foreign key constraints for data integrity. This foundational schema provides a robust structure for your social media database.
