I have a question about the files under config folder. Do,you have any documentation or video anywhere on how we can use them to extend the available units, equations or constants.
The reason why I am asking is that I did not even know of their existence until recently when I had to go through the folder to share one of my state files and if I understand this correctly, it is a very elegant way of extending the functionality of the calculator.

Thank you very much

I do not have a specific place where those are documented. This is distributed throughout the documentation, including in the Quickstart Guide. As for videos, I know that it's shown in various demos, although there is no demo specifically on how to edit these files.

Up until recently, the configuration files contained the entire set of constants, units, equations or characters. This would give you an example of what the file should look like. I hope that this is sufficient as a tutorial.

Starting with v0.7.12, these files turned into extensions, with the bulk of the corresponding items being built-in. That was the original intent, putting everything in the files was only to stress test the file code, and impacts performance notably for unit operations, because file access is slower than memory access.
