Description

Currently if you start editing the example from the docs, you won't have the protocol definitions pulled in.

Documentation should cover

  1. What smithy-build.json is for and what can it do
  2. Why this is the minimal required configuration for best editing experience
{
    "mavenDependencies": [
        "com.disneystreaming.smithy4s:smithy4s-protocol_2.13:latest.stable"
    ]
}
  1. What are the possibilities for internal use of this file

Research direction

Start in the QuickStart documentation and locate the example that uses smithy-build.json. Read the existing Smithy build configuration guidance, then document the file's purpose, why the shown mavenDependencies entry supports the editing experience, and its internal-use possibilities. Done means all three requested topics and the provided minimal configuration are explained.
