<div dir="ltr">Yes. Forge uses XML and provides project and user-scoped configurations, but since the plugin should be managing this, the user shouldn't ever have to edit the XML by hand (in theory.) If you do want to expose this to users, then... sure, by all means.

</div>afaik forge uses json...at least thats what I thought it did ;)<br>

<br>
</div>I assume it is for the project itself since it is in the project - but<br>
afaik forge config also has a project scope that stores in the project (Lincoln,<br>

<br>
</div>Sure - but it would just be nice we:<br>
<br>
A) don't use such generic names as config.yml - maybe aerogear-scaffold.yml(?)<br>
<br>
B) consider not having multiple .yml files for something that is more or less specfiic/limited to forge plugins (thus forge.yml might be better?)<br>
