+# Settings
+
+There are a large number of settings available to customize the behavior of the various server
+projects. These settings are applied through
+[Microsoft's configuration providers](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/configuration/?view=aspnetcore-8.0).
+Most common are the various `appSettings.json` files, [user secrets](../secrets/index.md), and
+environment variables.
+
+Each heading level is a settings namespace or setting itself. For example
+`iconSettings__cacheEnabled` corresponds to [Icon Settings -> CacheEnabled](#cacheenabled)
+
+import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';
+
+<TOCInline toc={toc} />
+
+## root
+
+These are settings without a parent namespace
+
+### DevelopSelfHosted
+
+Relevant for all projects that use [global settings](#global-settings).
+
+- **type**: `Boolean`
+- **default**: `False`
+- **full name**: `developSelfHosted`
+
+Turns on [self host override settings](#selfhostoverride).
+
+## Global Settings
+
+Settings for the Core Bitwarden Project. Not all settings are relevant for all projects.
+
+### SelfHosted
+
+:::info[Relevant For] All projects :::
+
+- **type**: `Boolean`
+- **default**: `False`
+- **full name**: `globalSettings__selfHosted`
+
+Indicates that a server instance is self hosted. This is used all over the place to swap out
+services and set expectations.
+
+### UnifiedDeployment
+
+:::info[Relevant For]
+
+- Shared web :::
+
+- **type**: `Boolean`
+- **default**: `False`
+- **full name**: `globalSettings__unifiedDeployment`
+
+Indicates that a server instance is hosted through the unified docker deployment method. Currently,
+this is used only while setting up nginx trusted reverse proxies. See
+[KnownProxies](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.aspnetcore.builder.forwardedheadersoptions.knownproxies?view=aspnetcore-8.0#microsoft-aspnetcore-builder-forwardedheadersoptions-knownproxies)
+
+### KnownProxies
+
+:::info[Relevant For]
+
+- Shared Web :::
+
+- **type**: `String`
+- **default**: `""`
+- **full name**: `globalSettings__knownProxies`
+
+A `,` delineated list of reverse proxies to trust. See
+[KnownProxies](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.aspnetcore.builder.forwardedheadersoptions.knownproxies?view=aspnetcore-8.0#microsoft-aspnetcore-builder-forwardedheadersoptions-knownproxies)
+
+### SiteName
+
+:::info[Relevant For] All projects (Mail and Logging) :::
+
+- **type**: `String`
+- **default**: `""`
+- **full name**: `globalSettings__siteName`
+
+Specifies the name of the hosted website in emails and logging.
+
+## Dev
+
+- **type**: `Namespace`
+- **default**: N/A
+- **full name**: N/A
+
+Settings for development environments.
+
+### selfHostOverride
+
+:::info[Relevant For] All Projects :::
+
+- **type**: `Namespace`
+- **default**: N/A
+- **full name**: N/A
+
+The [Global Settings](#global-settings) namespace is repeated here. Any value that is set there is
+overridden by the corresponding value in `selfHostOverride` _iif_ in a dev environment _AND_
+[develop self hosted](#developselfhosted) is `True` _AND_ the setting in question exists in the
+`selfHostOverride` namespace.
+
+This namespace is useful to allow for a single user secrets file to be used for developing both
+cloud and selfhosted servers at the same time, while allowing for different configurations between
+the two server instances.
