Chapter 2: Customizing App Configuration
This second chapter is about application configuration, how to use it, and how to customize the ASP.NET configuration to employ different ways to configure your app. Perhaps you already have an existing XML configuration, or want to share a YAML configuration file over different kinds of applications. Sometimes, it also makes sense to read configuration values out of a database.
In this chapter, we will be covering the following topics:
- Configuring the configuration
- Using typed configurations
- Configuration using INI files
- Configuration providers
The topics in this chapter refer to the hosting layer of the ASP.NET Core architecture:
