+<p>To override global configuration parameters, create a <code>config.toml</code> file located in your config directory:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Linux and Mac: <code>~/.config/helix/config.toml</code></li>
+<li>Windows: <code>%AppData%\helix\config.toml</code></li>
+</ul>
+<blockquote>
+<p>πŸ’‘ You can easily open the config file by typing <code>:config-open</code> within Helix normal mode.</p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>Example config:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-toml">theme = "onedark"
+
+[editor]
+line-number = "relative"
+mouse = false
+
+[editor.cursor-shape]
+insert = "bar"
+normal = "block"
+select = "underline"
+
+[editor.file-picker]
+hidden = false
+</code></pre>
+<p>You can use a custom configuration file by specifying it with the <code>-c</code> or
+<code>--config</code> command line argument, for example <code>hx -c path/to/custom-config.toml</code>.
+Additionally, you can reload the configuration file by sending the USR1
+signal to the Helix process on Unix operating systems, such as by using the command <code>pkill -USR1 hx</code>.</p>
+<p>Finally, you can have a <code>config.toml</code> local to a project by putting it under a <code>.helix</code> directory in your repository.
+Its settings will be merged with the configuration directory <code>config.toml</code> and the built-in configuration.</p>

+<ul>
+<li>Linux and Mac: <code>~/.config/helix/ignore</code></li>
