Where are the props defined on a model actually processed and applied to an instance on .create()?

Trying to replicate the logic for defining new Models by extending existing types with .actions, .views, and .props for a MobX store, where it won't use mobx-state-tree's typing (nor typescript). I understand how .actions() and .views() work, but am struggling to find the relevant code for where the properties assigned to a Type get applied to an actual instance of an object

This is where the actual application happens:

mobx-state-tree/packages/mobx-state-tree/src/core/node/object-node.ts

Line 133 in ac5ffcd

this._initialSnapshot = freeze(initialValue)

But this code is a bit difficult to follow, to be honest. I wish it was less complicated.
