Where does the metadata enter? about javascript-todo-list-tutorial

[nelsonic]

Did you understand what metadata is?
Did you click the wikipedia link and read it?
What was your doubt after reading the wikipedia article?
The metadata in a Todo list application is the data that helps the system identify the todo list items or keep track of how many items there are. The user does not have to input this information. The id is created by the todo list system and the count is just the total number of times in the list. The user does not need to manually count up their items or input any additional data in order to have a count.

Apologies if I am not understanding where the confusion is ... 😕

I have been able to find more information about metadata and I have been able to understand what it is but I did not understand what the purpose of using metadata in general is, within the project I understood but outside the subject what the purpose is?

@miguelmartins17 are you referring to the What about metadata? section?

If you are able to help us clarify what the two types of metadata are in this App id and count, please do.

I have opened a Pull Request to completely remove any reference to metadata
to avoid any further confusion to anyone reading this tutorial in the future: #22

It says there are two types of metadata in Todo List's wanted to know if there were more features or functions.
I must not have explained myself well.
