    Configurations

    This section describes the final Stan configuration that was used on the project and explains how this result was assembled. Stan runtime settings have many parts, and each of them can come from different configuration sources. Stan is using Environment variables, TOML configuration file and CLI arguments to get the final results. If some option is specified through the multiple sources, the most prioritized one is used.
