Software engineer, I love building things with node and javascript. If I'm not writing code, I'm probably outside doing something in the mountains or playing Rocket league
Most of the time if I'm doing document/table design for a data structure, I'll end up using something like itemType, but after looking at this post and thinking on it a bit, some other seemingly good options would seem to be:
purpose
label
and perhaps, mold.
purpose I like in that it conveys the meaning of the thing, eg. "this thing is meant to be an array", where as label is a bit shorter to type, but could be confused for another more useful property on a data item.
mold is nice because it is shorter to type, but a bit more ambiguous in terms of what it could be referencing.
