## Developing with theme.json

It can be difficult to remember the theme.json settings and properties while you develop, so a JSON scheme was created to help. The schema is available at [SchemaStore.org](https://schemastore.org/)

To use the schema, add `"$schema": "https://json.schemastore.org/theme-v1.json"` to the beginning of your theme.json file. Visual Studio Code and other editors will pick up the schema and can provide help like tooltips, autocomplete, or schema validation in the editor.
