@@ -0,0 +1,104 @@
+---
+title: Configuration
+description: config
+---
+
+## Defaults
+
+Knip has good defaults and aims for "zero config". Here's a simplified version
+of the default `entry` and `project` values:
+
+```json
+{
+  "entry": ["index.{js,ts}", "src/index.{js,ts}"],
+  "project": ["**/*.{js,ts}"]
+}
+```
+
+Entry files are the starting point for Knip to find more source files and
+external dependencies.
+
+## Location
+
+By default, Knip will look for a configuration file with the following names:
+
+- `knip.json`
+- `knip.jsonc`
+- `.knip.json`
+- `.knip.jsonc`
+- `knip.ts`
+- `knip.js`
+- `knip.config.ts`
+- `knip.config.js`
+- `package.json` (in the `"knip"` property)
+
+If you want to use a custom file name or path, use the `--config` flag:
+
+```sh
+knip --config path/to/knip.json
+```
+
+## Customize
+
+Your project structure may not match the default `entry` and `project` files.
+Here's an example custom configuration to include `.js` files in the `scripts`
+folder:
+
+```json title="knip.json"
+{
+  "$schema": "https://unpkg.com/knip@5/schema.json",
+  "entry": ["src/index.ts", "scripts/{build,create}.js"],
+  "project": ["src/**/*.ts", "scripts/**/*.js"]
+}
+```
+
+If you override the `entry` file patterns, you may also want to override
+`project` file patterns. The set of project files is used to determine what
+files are unused. The `project` patterns can also be negated to exclude files
+from the analysis. See [configuring project files][1] for details.
+
+The values you set override the default values, they are not merged.
+
+:::tip
+
+Be specific with `entry` files. Minimize the number of entry files and wildcards
+for better results.
+
+Plugins are enabled automatically, and set entry files for you. Such as for
+Next.js, Astro, Remix, Vitest, Playwright and many more.
+
+:::
+
+Knip looks for entry files in many places. Learn more in the next page about
+[entry files][2].
+
+## Configuration Options
+
+See [configuration file options][3].
+
+Use JavaScript or TypeScript in a [dynamic configuration file][4].
+
+## What's next?
+
+The best way to understand Knip and what it can do for you is to read the pages
+in the "Understanding Knip" sections, starting with [entry files][2].

+
+## Requirements
+
+Knip v5 requires at least Node.js v18.18.0. Or Bun.
+
+Want to try Knip without installation? Visit [the playground][1].
+
+## Installation
+
+This is the easiest and recommended way to install Knip:
+
+<Tabs syncKey="pm">
+  <TabItem label="npm">
+    ```shell
+    npm init @knip/config
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="pnpm">
+    ```shell
+    pnpm create @knip/config
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="bun">
+    ```shell
+    bun create @knip/config
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="yarn">
+    ```shell
+    yarn create @knip/config
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+Now you can run Knip to lint your project:
+
+<Tabs syncKey="pm">
+  <TabItem label="npm">
+    ```shell
+    npm run knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="pnpm">
+    ```shell
+    pnpm knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="bun">
+    ```shell
+    bun knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="yarn">
+    ```shell
+    yarn knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+Knip will lint your project and report unused dependencies, exports and files.
+
+If the output makes sense to you, feel free to go to the next page:
+[configuration][2].
+
+## Too Much?
+
+In large or complex codebases the output might be overwhelming. Start by
+limiting the number of shown issues per type:
+
+<Tabs syncKey="pm">
+  <TabItem label="npm">
+    ```shell
+    npm run knip -- --max-show-issues 5
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="pnpm">
+    ```shell
+    pnpm knip --max-show-issues 5
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="bun">
+    ```shell
+    bun knip --max-show-issues 5
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="yarn">
+    ```shell
+    yarn knip --max-show-issues 5
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+The output is easier to digest and may include some configuration hints to get
+an idea of what's left to configure. Many unused files? Go to [configuration][2]
+and follow up with [troubleshooting][3] if needed.
+
+:::tip
+
+Do not use the `ignore` option just to get rid of unwanted output. Read
+[Configuring Project Files][4] to get the most out of Knip.
+
+:::
+
+## Manual
+
+Alternatively, manually install Knip using your package manager:
+
+<Tabs syncKey="pm">
+  <TabItem label="npm">
+    ```shell
+    npm install -D knip typescript @types/node
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="pnpm">
+    ```shell
+    pnpm add -D knip typescript @types/node
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="bun">
+    ```shell
+    bun add -D knip typescript @types/node
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="yarn">
+    ```shell
+    yarn add -D knip typescript @types/node
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+Knip uses `typescript` and ` @types/node` as peer dependencies to increase
+compatibility with your project. No worries, they're probably in your
+`node_modules` already.
+
+Then add a `knip` script to your `package.json`:
+
+```json title="package.json"
+{
+  "name": "my-project",
+  "scripts": {
+    "knip": "knip"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Without installation
+
+To run Knip without adding it to your project:
+
+<Tabs syncKey="pm">
+  <TabItem label="npm">
+    ```shell
+    npx knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="pnpm">
+    ```shell
+    pnpm dlx knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+
+  <TabItem label="bun">
+    ```shell
+    bunx knip
+    ```
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+In this scenario `typescript` and `@types/node` are expected to be installed
+already.
