129- Most Symfony applications define configuration parameters in a file called
130- ``app/config/parameters.yml ``. This file should *not * be deployed, because
131- Symfony generates it automatically using the ``app/config/parameters.yml.dist ``
132- file as a template (that's why ``parameters.yml.dist `` must be committed and
133- deployed).
131+ Most Symfony applications read their configuration from environment variables.
132+ While developing locally, you'll usually store these in a ``.env `` file. But on
133+ production, instead of creating this file, you should set *real * environment variables.

135- If your application uses environment variables instead of these parameters, you
136- must define those env vars in yourproduction server using the tools provided by
137- your hosting service.
135+ How you set environment variables, depends on your setup: they can be set at the
136+ command line, in yourNginx configuration, or via other methods provided by your
137+ hosting service.
