The appsettings.json file is a common way to configure .NET apps. ASP.NET Core uses appsettings.json and appsettings.${Environment}.json files to configure some of its most frequently used features, including:
- Database connection strings
- Kestrel endpoints
- HTTPS certificates
- Logging
- Host filtering
Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code (with C# extension 1.23.8 or later) now support IntelliSense of well known appsettings.json configuration settings. IntelliSense allows you to quickly edit your app’s configuration and get immediate feedback on available properties or typos.
