 ## Library design
-The central point of the library design is the `Vision` interface. The `Vision` stores an optional reference to its parent and is able to store a number of mutable or read-only properties. Each property is represented by its `Name`, and a `MetaItem` value-tree, both following DataForge library specification (discussed in the [Appendix](appendix.md)). The `Vision` objects are organized in a tree using `VisionGroup` as nodes. `VisionGroup` additionally to all `Vision` properties holds a `children` container that holds named references to its direct children `Vision`s. Thus, `Vision`s form a doubly linked tree (a parent stores references to all its children and children store a reference to the parent).

Thus, `Vision`s form a doubly linked tree (a parent stores references to all its children and children store a reference to the parent).
 
 An important concept using in the VisionForge is the property layering mechanism. It means that if the property with a given name is not found in the `Vision` it is requested from, it could be requested from the parent `Vision`, form the style declaration, the prototype for the vision or any other place defined by the component author. For example, let's take a `color` attribute used in 3D visualization. When one draws a group of objects, he usually wants to make the color of all objects in the group to be defined by a single handle in the group common ancestor. So when the parent color changes, all children color must follow suite, but we also want to change children color individually without changing the parent. In this case two property layers are defined:
