This article on the developer blog has a good overview of what JSON schema is and it also lists and explains the several ways that JSON schema is used in WordPress. It is worthwhile reading this article for orientation purposes for power users even if you aren’t a developer.

WordPress has an API for storing and loading options, the Options API. Some changes to the Options API are coming with WordPress 6.6. One of the settings when creating an option is if the option should be auto loaded with each page. Up until now, the default when an option is created was “yes” to auto load it. However, a large amount of auto-loaded data can hurt page performance. The default is being changed to “null” and a ceiling on the size of auto-loaded options is being introduced. These and other changes are discussed in this article on the make blog.

Here is a developer resource – A searchable directory of WordPress filter and action hooks created by Tiffany Brown.
A minimalist plaintext WordPress theme. This one looks like a Classic theme. I imagine you can do something similar with block themes.
