This library parses JSON Schemas, resolves their `$ref` pointers, and can fully dereference them into plain objects for use in both Node.js and browser environments. It’s aimed at developers who need to work with complex, modular JSON Schemas—such as API designers, tool builders, and validation libraries—providing a convenient way to flatten and manipulate schema references. This fork adds a fix for cached extended‑object handling while preserving compatibility with the original json-schema-ref-parser API.
