Shopify schema help me

Question

I try to create any container to understand how it works, I create a new file (customise_menu.liquid), write schema and copy the settings to the settings_schema.json, but it doesn't work when I go to The main page editor there, schema isn't there. I googled it, but it's useless. What could be the problem?

{% schema %}
  {
    "name": "something",
    "settings": [
      {
        "id": "title",
        "type": "text",
        "label": "Title",
        "default": "Hello world"
      }
    ]
  }
{% endschema %}

Json file

        "default": "#ffffff"
      },

When I tried to change one of the schemes, I just changed the name in line default (I changed "Blog" to "12345"), and it immediately stopped working, from this I can conclude that there is a file where you need to prescribe all the settings, in theory it should be a file settings_schema.json, but it doesn't work.

It seeems like there is a confusion between the settings_schema.json file which manages global theme settings and sections specific settings.

This part should be written in customize_menu.liquid:

{% schema %}
  {
    "name": "something",
    "settings": [
      {
        "id": "title",
        "type": "text",
        "label": "Title",
        "default": "Hello world"
      }
    ]
  }
{% endschema %}

It will appear in theme customize interface in the "Section tab", then click on "something" that should be listed.
