Most settings are configurable entirely via UI (or the Settings.fds file), however some settings intended for automated or dev usage are provided by command line instead. Additionally, some settings in the UI can be overridden by command line.

Usage

An example for a personal launch configuration on a home Windows PC would be .\launch-windows.ps1 --host * --port 7850 --environment development --launch_mode web

Note that if your inputs are invalid, the program will refuse to start, with an error message indicating what value is wrong.
