This means in DB. This field can be null. It's optional.

I know `!` means 'required...' so strange that we would need `?` to specify 'optional.' What would be the difference with just omitting `!`? – CodeFinity Oct 14 '20 at 09:26

In prisma version one they using `!` but in version 2 they using `?` – Ahmed Elywa Oct 14 '20 at 16:02
