Configuration
The kit is configured in three places:
| Where | What | When it takes effect |
|---|---|---|
The environment (.env, or the container's settings) | The database, secrets, the site address, and the optional services: AI translation, email, newsletter, maps | When the server starts |
| Code | The languages, the content modules, the default theme | After a restart in development, or a new build for production |
| The admin | Site name and logo, theme colours, menu and footer, interface texts, the translation style guide | At once, on the next page load |
- Environment variables: every variable, generated from
.env.example. - Languages: which languages the site has, and how addresses work.
- Modules: switch news, jobs, dealers, cases and the catalog on or off.
- Theme and design tokens: colours from one set of tokens, changed at runtime, and the scroll animations.
- AI translation: the Anthropic key, what it costs, what is off without it.
- AI assistants (MCP): let people connect their own assistant to the translation rules.
- Newsletter: pass sign-ups on to Mailchimp.
- Maps: the dealer map's tile server.
- Email: SMTP for form notifications and password resets.
