In software modeling, a '''model''' is an abstract representation that serves as a blueprint for the system being developed.
A model is ....

Modeling plays a pivotal role in software development for several reasons:

# [[/www.startertutorials.com/uml/importance-of-modeling.html|'''Specification''': Models provide a precise way to capture and communicate system requirements and design decisions<sup>1</sup>]].
# [[/www.startertutorials.com/uml/importance-of-modeling.html|'''Guidance''': They serve as a blueprint that guides the construction of the system, ensuring that the final product aligns with the envisioned design<sup>1</sup>]].
# [[/www.startertutorials.com/uml/importance-of-modeling.html|'''Documentation''': Models document the decisions made during the development process, which is valuable for future maintenance and updates<sup>1</sup>]].
