A Schema is also commonly known as a content type. The Schema builder allows you to structure your content in the most optimal way for your application. It gives you the freedom to choose the types of fields you need, the order in which you need them, and the validation required on each field.

Think of the schema builder as a tool to create templates for your different data.
