# Differences in the syntax between TSconfig and frontend TypoScript

While the objects, properties and conditions are different,
the *syntax* of TSconfig is basically the same as it is for
TypoScript in frontend TypoScript templates.

Please note the following differences:

-   There are differences in the [conditions](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/t3tsref:conditions@main) that can be used.

> [!NOTE]
> [Site settings](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/SiteHandling/SiteSettings.html#sitehandling-settings) can be used with the
> TypoScript constant syntax in TSconfig.
