Configuration

The Publishing Tools app is based on the small app concept and installed by the Publishing module. Access to the app is restricted to the superuser role in the app configuration and app launcher layout configuration.

The app's configuration is bootstraped from a YAML file at /publishing-app/apps/publishing.yaml :
