[REQUEST] Consider adopting Linkml

[noelmcloughlin]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The Zod schema lacks native interoperability with Semantic Web standards, Knowledge Graphs, Linked Data.

Describe the solution you'd like

Could you consider adopting https://linkml.io/ schema which addresses the problem natively, and allows users to combine (import) linkml data models from different vendors (import mitre/attack)?

Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatives include adopting semantic web frameworks (OWL/RDF/SHACL) but these technologies are too complex for Data Modelers - Linkml is bridge to those web frameworks anyway.

Additional context - Cost/Benefit

Linkml Benefit:

• Easy to Author Linkml Schemas
• Rich modelling language
• Increasing Data-Centric adoption for complex domains (datalad, risk-atlas-nexus, gaia-x, biolink, etc)
• Key benefit is Bridge between Frameworks
• Toolchains and Polygot generators (25 last count), a linkml-zod-generator could be added

Linkml Cost

• Learn Linkml
• Convert Zod Schema to Linkml Schema
• For backward compatibility - a linkml-zod-generatormay need to be written to generate TypeScript classes. There is a linkml-typescript-generator already.
