Most information in TypeScript types is duplicated in JSON schemas.
Consider implementing a mechanism to keep both in sync.
Note that JSON schemas may no longer be necessary once we have our Web2Cit-Editor (because users won't need to use the JSON-editor then).

See T318352 for a proposal to have this done as part of the Web2Cit-Server build process instead.
Reopening, as generating the schemas from type definitions should be a related but separate task from generating and translating schemas on the fly from the Web2Cit-Server.
Alternatively, TypeScript types may be generated from base JSON schemas, from which more user-friendly JSON-editor-ready JSON schemas are generated on the server.
