Configuration inspector (readonly)
Only available if typo3/cms-lowlevel is installed.
The configuration module can be found at System > Configuration. It allows integrators to view and validate the global configuration of TYPO3. The module displays all relevant global variables, such as TYPO3_CONF_VARS, TCA and many more, in a tree format which is easy to browse through. Over time, this module has been extended to also display configuration of newly introduced features like the middleware stack and event listeners.
