How to use it

Use this block to define one typed value that later blocks reference as its value output, such as a constant, a record built from several references, or a fixed list. It does not calculate anything. To reshape or compute a value, use @lainstack/js/transform (guide javascript.transform).

• The value is checked against schema on every run. A mismatch fails the step.
• A uniform List schema accepts only one whole reference to an existing list. You cannot type its items one by one. To write a list by hand, use a tuple List schema with exactly one item for each declared position.
• A template works only when the schema is Text.
• A Record input must supply every required field and no undeclared field.
• Table rows need a paired TableSchema, and each row must have every declared column.
• To point a field at an earlier block’s output, read guide references.
