// Package design defines types which describe the data types used by action controllers.
// These are the data structures of the request payloads and parameters as well as the response
// payloads.
// There are primitive types corresponding to the JSON primitive types (bool, string, integer and
// number), array types which represent a collection of another type and object types corresponding
// to JSON objects (i.e. a map indexed by strings where each value may be any of the data types).
// On top of these the package also defines "user types" and "media types". Both these types are
// named objects with additional properties (a description and for media types the media type
// identifier, links and views).
