+// NOTE ON IMPORTS:
+//
+//   You shouldn't import any code that can change as the project evolves!
+//
+//   It should be safe to import a library like `uuid` as its API is unlikely to change.
+//   For application code, it's better to copy it to the migration directory.
+//
+//   If you have to import something that may change,
+//   be prepared to keep the migration code up to date as well.
+//
+//   This is necessary because we want to be able to run old migrations at any point.
+//   For example, when we setting up a fresh database or making a reset.
