# `collect`: Collections (N documents, and the references between them)

```{py:currentmodule} myform.collect
```

`model` defines the typed `Collection` and its `DocEntry` members; `resolve` is the pass that
turns cross-document references into concrete ones *before* the degradation engine or any writer
runs. Nothing here is imported by `myform/__init__.py`: a collection is opt-in, so the package
import budget (spec section 10) is unaffected by its existence.

Import it directly::

```
from myform.collect import Collection, resolve
```

```{eval-rst}
.. automodule:: myform.collect
   :members:
   :imported-members:
```
