Settings allows you to provide a web interface to settings, routes and translations that traditionally could only be changed by editing files by hand. Obviously there are reasons for this, so using this plugin incorrectly might corrupt your application.

A simple interface where you can enter key / value pairs that will eventually go into the Configure::class. A good example for this would be the ability to turn off debugging remotely in case you let it on.

A simple interface where you can add routes and specify which controller and action the route points to. An extra field is also included where you can add extra PHP code to further control your routes.

Another simple interface where you can add translations for your application. The plugin will automatically write the translations into the correct language and domain .po file inside your locale folder.
