# Important Notes
- All UI is currently generated based off of a single-source-of-truth JSON Schema file.
- JSON Schema was chosen for a few reasons:
- trivial to parse (it's plain JSON)
- sufficiently powerful (supports unions (used in the initial schema), objects, and singleton/literal types)
- but still quite simple (this makes it easier to implement various utilities for, because there are fewer cases to cover)
- Note that it is definitely possible to change this. The original suggestion was a TypeScript file, which can definitely be done even using just the `typescript` package itself - I just prefer to avoid adding another step in the build process, especially one that depends on the `typescript` package at runtime.
- Note also that we *do* actually bundle transpilers as part of the visualization loading code in GUI2 - so for now at least, the size of the dependency isn't a primary concern, but rather just the mental overhead of having another dependency for this one specific task.
