+
+Voiden supports a YAML-based **Advanced Environment Configuration** system — a dedicated way to manage environment values across profiles, with a clear separation between what's shareable and what stays local.
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+Environment values are split into two distinct categories:
+
+- **Public values** — safe to commit to version control (base URLs, feature flags, non-sensitive defaults)
+- **Private values** — stays local to your machine, never committed (API keys, tokens, passwords)
+
+Each category lives in its own YAML file. They hold different keys for different purposes — not two versions of the same data.
+
+---
+
+## Opening the Environment Panel
+
+You can open the environment panel in two ways:
+
+- Click the **No Environment** button in the top navbar, next to the project name
+- Use the keyboard shortcut:
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem value="mac" label="macOS" default>
+
+| Action | Shortcut |
+|---|---|
+| Open Environment Panel | `⌘ Cmd + ⌥ Option + E` |
+
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="windows" label="Windows">
+
+| Action | Shortcut |
+|---|---|
+| Open Environment Panel | `Alt + Ctrl + E` |
+
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+---
+
+## Setting Up YAML Configuration
+
+Once the environment dialog is open:
+
+**1.** At the bottom of the dialog, click **Edit Environment and Profile** in the footer.
+
+![Environment Setup](/img/geetingstarted/env-setup.png)
+
+**2.** A new tab will open — this is the YAML environment editor where you can add your public and private values and manage profiles.

+
+---
+
+## Default Configuration
+
+When no profile is active, Voiden looks for files in this order:
+
+| Priority | File | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `env-public.yaml` | Shared, non-sensitive values |
+| 2 | `env-private.yaml` | Sensitive, local-only values |
+| 3 | `.env` | Legacy fallback if no YAML files are found |
+
+If neither YAML file is present, Voiden falls back to `.env` automatically — so existing projects work out of the box with no migration required.
+
+### Example
+
+<Tabs>
+  <TabItem value="public" label="env-public.yaml" default>
+
+```yaml
+baseUrl: https://api.example.com
+timeout: 5000
+featureFlags:
+  newDashboard: true
+```
+
+  </TabItem>
+  <TabItem value="private" label="env-private.yaml">
+
+```yaml
+apiKey: sk-your-secret-key-here
+authToken: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIs...
+```
+
+  </TabItem>
+</Tabs>
+
+---
+
+## Profiles
+
+Profiles let you maintain multiple named environment configurations — for example, `staging`, `production`, or `local-dev` — each with their own public and private files.

+
+### Switching Profiles
+
+Open the environment panel and select your desired profile from the dialog.

+
+## What to Commit
+
+| File | Commit to Git? |
+|---|---|
+| `env-public.yaml` | Yes |
+| `env-private.yaml` | **No** — add to `.gitignore` |
+| `env-{profile}-public.yaml` | Yes |
+| `env-{profile}-private.yaml` | **No** — add to `.gitignore` |
+
+A good `.gitignore` rule to cover all private files:
+
+```
+env-*-private.yaml
+env-private.yaml
+```
