## Configuration

This starter kit comes with runtime configuration out-of-the-box.
It achieves this with 2 config files in the public directory: `config.js` and `configOverrides.js`.
`config.js` is meant to be filled with a default for all of your application's runtime configurations.
`configOverrides.js` is meant to be replaced during deployment with environment specific runtime overrides.

### Using the `config.ts` file

To use the config you import `Config` from `config.ts` and use the typed object:

```tsx
import { Config } from "../config";

import { FunctionComponent } from "react";

export const Navbar: FunctionComponent<{}> = () => {
  return <h1>{JSON.stringify(Config)}</h1>;
};
```

### adding values

To add a value to the runtime config you have to take 2 steps:

1. Add a type to the `RuntimeConfig` type in [src/infrastructure/config/RunTimeConfig.ts](./src/infrastructure/config/RunTimeConfig.ts)

   ```tsx
   type RunTimeConfig = {
     version: number;
     name: string;
     myNewKey: string;
   };
   ```

2. Add a key (if required) to [public/config.js]
