## Collections and documents

* **Documents** are shown with Extended JSON; nested fields are fully browsable.
* A **Structure panel** summarizes a collection's fields.

## Shell-style queries

Run shell-style queries in the [query editor](/query-editor):

```js theme={null}
db.orders.find({ status: "paid" }).sort({ createdAt: -1 }).limit(50)
```

Browsing collections and documents is free. Running your own query is a NoSQL query.

<Note>Running MongoDB queries is a PRO feature.</Note>
