      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      Context

      Django heavily relies on the use of JOINs/joining tables in a lot of the underlying work for the web framework. Our plan is to create an article explaining how we implemented JOIN behavior through MongoDB using our $lookup operator. As well, we want to explain why it's a good idea not to use foreign keys or $lookup because our EmbeddedModelField abstraction will yield more performant results.

      Definition of done

      Article written and scheduled for release prior to GA

      Pitfalls

      Review cycles could lead to release times taking longer.
