+# Overview
+This folder contains ERD diagrams representing our database schema for both our postgres DB
+
+Diagrams can be manually generated by running `make create-erds` from the api folder.
+
+# Dependencies
+If running outside of Docker, you must install `graphviz` (`brew install graphviz`) for this to work, this should be automatically installed as part of the Dockerfile inside Docker.
+
+# Caveats
+The diagrams generated are based on our SQLAlchemy models, and not the database itself, so there are a few differences.
+
+* Fields that we name different in-code will have a different name
+* The table names use the class name
+* Property fields are SQLAlchemy only and generally represent relationships (ie. values fetched via a foreign key `join`)
