If you're an experienced developer. you might not need 1NF-2NF and 3.5NF-4NF(Don't complicate things). as 3NF already covers 1..1,0..1,0..*,1..*, and *..* relationships.

As for the question. It is indeed important to use relational database to make your data organized. But I would like to do the UI first before database. We want to know what clients want by providing the basic model before implementing it in the database. I don't want to keep on rewriting the schema every time a client wants a change of mind in their product.
