JSON Schema Extended Directives:

The DIT extension for JSON Schema is an effort to make more JSON Schema-based forms even more dynamic. These specifications are tailored for DIT's needs and will be extended even further as the development team sees fit.

Baseline

2. The field __metadata sits next to the standard JSON Schema field definitions such as type and enum
3. All custom directives names start with double underdashes, including the field __metadata
