Create JSON Schema to further define and constrain the spec. about jsoncanvas HOT 7 OPEN

This is a duplicate.

You can see my attempt made yesterday. Already done an MR. Maybe there is a few things to tweak like adding description though.

I think we can either work from yours or mine.

I've been diving deep into JSON Schema and OpenAPI specs recently. I think building the JSON Schema from TypeScript source is good for maintainability.
If there is an appetite for it I can transform this JSON to TS and set up the pipeline for programmatically generating the JSON Schema?
also relates to #4

Over in json-schema land we are warmly encouraging people to adopt 2020-12. Most draft7 specs translate trivially and you will be well positioned for vNext. There is now plenty of high quality tooling for most languages.

The interesting thing about this approach with the documentation in the schema like this is that we could generate the human-readable text from the schema.

Interesting idea!

Couple of questions:

• Which tool do you intend to use for the generation?
• Does it support draft2020-12 (which is the current JSON Schema draft)
• What are advantages over creating/editing JSON Schema documents (how do you validate that it is producing valid/useful schema?

I've experimented with pretty much every tool I can find. So it's dealer's choice. I've found Draft-07 to be a lot more widely supported still, but I have enough reliable tooling to support 2020-12. What are @kepano and @ericaxu's thoughts?

@mwadams for me the one downside is (as of writing) lack of support in VSCode for 2020-12
