json-schema-to-typescript compiles files from JSONSchema to TypeScript in distinct phases:

1. Validator

TODO use an external validation library

2. Normalizer

Normalizes input schemas so the parser can make more assumptions about schemas' properties and values.

3. Resolver

Resolves referenced schemas (in the file, on the local filesystem, or over the network).

4. Parser

Parses JSONSchema to an intermediate representation for easy code generation.

5. Optimizer

Optimizes the IR to produce concise and readable TypeScript in step (6).

6. Generator

Converts the intermediate respresentation to TypeScript code.

7. Formatter

Formats the code so it is properly indented, etc.
