  * Use roughly the same Doxygen-style comments for documentation as described above for C++. (But we don't actually run Doxygen on the JS code, so there's no need to make the comments use technically correct Doxygen syntax.)
 
+ * We've recently been switching to Class syntax for JS (see e.g. [https://code.wildfiregames.com/P169]).
+   * Literals are stored in the prototype (e.g. `BuildingAI.prototype.MAX_PREFERENCE_BONUS = 2;`).
+   * The Schema is also a literal and hence is stored in the prototype.
+   * We don't want to rewrite components just for the sake of it, but new components should be written in the class syntax and major rewrites can opt to use the class syntax.
+
  * Don't omit the optional semicolons after statements.
