+"""
+QAPI Schema internal representation.
+
+The `QAPISchema` represents the fully realized QAPI schema. It builds a
+listing of `QAPISchemaEntity` objects that are each associated with a
+`QAPISchemaModule`.
+
+`QAPISchemaMember` represents a single member of a collection of
+members, see the subclasses thereof for users. `QAPISchemaVariants` is a
+simple collection of `QAPISchemaVariant`.
+
+The `QAPISchemaVisitor` can be extended and passed to QAPISchema.visit
+to iterate over a schema and perform code generation tasks.
+
+The Python class hierarchy at a glance:
+
+`QAPISchemaEntity`
+  `QAPISchemaInclude`
+  `QAPISchemaCommand`
+  `QAPISchemaEvent`
+  `QAPISchemaType`
+    `QAPISchemaBuiltinType`
+    `QAPISchemaEnumType`
+    `QAPISchemaArrayType`
+    `QAPISchemaObjectType`
+    `QAPISchemaAlternateType`
+
+`QAPISchemaMember`
+  `QAPISchemaEnumMember`
+  `QAPISchemaFeature`
+  `QAPISchemaObjectTypeMember`
+    `QAPISchemaVariant`
