What problem does it solve?

khanelinix uses a seven-level configuration hierarchy to organize customizations, helping you decide where to place changes and how to resolve option conflicts across host, platform, and user scopes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-Level Hierarchy: Common, Platform, Home, Suite, Archetype, Host, User.
  • Quick Decision Tree: step-by-step guidance to choose the right layer for a change.
  • Override Precedence: patterns for layering defaults, host/user overrides, and strong overrides.
  • Use Case: structure complex configurations across multi-machine environments to avoid drift and conflicts.

Quick Start

Identify where to place the change by following the seven-level hierarchy from common modules to user configs.
