You cna import a feature(a set of configuration objects) and then you can see if the configuration on the site is the same as the one that was imported with the feature and if not you can recreate the feature to reflect the actual state or you can revert the site's configuration into feature's state. Currently I'm not sure what are the good cases to use Features in D8 but it's too soon so I'm sure some scenarios will pop up with time. | |
| Apr 22, 2015 at 2:42 | comment | added | Chris | I see, thanks. So for packages and own functionality, I'd still need to use Features? The news-section, the gallery-section? Since configuration can't handle dependencies, right? I reckon it'd be possible to write it by hand - but Features seem to be way more efficient. | |

State on the other hand is site-specific, ie. D7 variables. | |
| Apr 20, 2015 at 23:38 | comment | added | Chris | A common config would be what? Something like Content Types/Required Modules/Permissions. And state for the site itself for language, theme_settings etc. How would I create and develop something like a news section with all it's views, blocks and the content type? How about a gallery? | |
