- `alias.go`: The module's exported types, constants, and variables. These are mainly
to improve developer ergonomics by only needing to import a single package. Note,
there is nothing preventing developers from importing other packages from the module
(excluding`internal/`) but it is recommended that `alias.go` have everything
exposed that other modules may need. The majority of the exported values here will
typically come from `internal/` (see below).

- `genesis.go`: The module's genesis related business logic (e.g. `InitGenesis`).
Note, genesis types are defined in `internal/types`.
- `handler.go`: The module's message handlers.
- `internal/`: The module's internal types and implementations. The purpose of
this package is mainly two fold. First, it signals that this package is not
intended to be used or imported anywhere outside the defining module. Secondly,
it goes hand-in-hand with `alias.go` in that it allows public types and functions
to be used internally while not being exposed outside to the outside world. This
allows for greater freedom of development while maintaining API stability.
- `internal/types`: The module's type definitions such as messages, `KVStore`
keys, parameter types, and `expected_keepers.go` contracts.
