Looking at the last example, how does it know that `name` is of type String and `age` is of type Number? Should it not be

  $ frodo generate model user name:string age:number

or something?

In Rails, attributes without an explicit type are `String` by default. Not sure how age became a `Number`, though.

I think "Number" is from Mongoose, which is an ODM for MongoDB.

Ooops.... Thank you. Of course, it should be so.
