+# Configuration
+
+## Configuration file
+
+This app needs minimal configuration, currently just storing defaults for the
+`author_name`, `author_email` and `default_license`. This is stored in a
+configuration file in a sub-folder of the user's home directory. By default (and
+currently the only option) this file is stored in `~/.pymaker/config.toml`. An
+example of this file is:
+
+```toml
+[pymaker]
+author_email = "user@server.com"
+author_name = "Python User"
+default_license = "MIT"
+schema_version = "1.0" # for internal use, generally don't change this
+```
+
+If this file does not exist, it will be created on first run. The app will ask
+for the values of these fields. For `author_name` and `author_email` it will try
+to use the current git user name and email if they are set as defaults, though
+the user can override these.
+
+## View configuration
+
+You can list the current configuration with the command:
+
+```
+$ pymaker config show
+```
+
+## Set configuration
+
+The configuration is set the first time you run the app, but you can change
+these defaults at any time using the command:
+
+```console
+$ pymaker config change
+```
+
+The latter command will prompt you for the values of the fields, and then update
+the configuration file.
