<p><strong>A. Manual Manipulation</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Pre-built node folder structures with user-editable flows and other components</li>
<li>Manual mesh resource creation (nodes; flows, snapshots, distributions and other components)</li>
<li>File-system based editing workflows</li>
<li>Validation of hand-crafted mesh structures</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>B. API-Driven Node Manipulation</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Flow-service API endpoints for programmatic node creation</li>
<li>Support for root node initialization</li>
<li>Flow and other component management via API</li>
<li>RESTful mesh resource manipulation</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>C. Dataset Distribution Upload + Extraction</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Upload mechanisms for RDF dataset distributions (.trig, .jsonld, etc.)</li>
<li>Automatic named entity extraction from semantic data</li>
<li>System-generated reference and data nodes</li>
<li>Batch processing of semantic data</li>
<li><strong>Limitation</strong>: Cannot handle binary file resources (audio, images, etc.) - only RDF data</li>
<li>File resources must be handled via Direct Manual Construction or API-Driven modalities</li>

Mesh CRUD

**Dereferenceable, versioned semantic meshes** will be the foundation for a new era of knowledge graphs.

[[now]] | [[todo]] | [[principle]] | [[dev.contributor.djradon.dev-log]]

## What Is Semantic Flow?

**Semantic Flow** is a framework for managing and publishing resource identifiers, knowledge graphs and other semantic data by leveraging GitHub, Gitlab, and other free static hosting services. It enables a **dereferenceable Semantic Web** where every HTTP IRI returns meaningful content.

[[concept.mesh-repo]] provide storage, [[concept.mesh]] provide resource management and publishing, and [[concept.semantic-site]] support data discovery and explainability.

## Benefits

- own your own self-describing data and data schemas
- complete version history when you want it
- reliable persistence
- truly FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable)

## Features

- seamlessly integrate other data sources anywhere in your mesh
- generate and customize mini-sites or single-page applications for nodes in your mesh
- see [[feature]] for a list of planned features
