 ## Configuration by environment
 
 It's typical to have different configuration settings for different environments, for example, development, testing, and production. The `CreateDefaultBuilder` extension method in an ASP.NET Core 2.x app (or using `AddJsonFile` and `AddEnvironmentVariables` directly in an ASP.NET Core 1.x app) adds configuration providers for reading JSON files and system configuration sources:
