# Reading Configs

Once you have defined your configuration schema and values, you can read them in
your application. TypeConf provides a simple and type-safe way to access your
configurations.

## Basic Usage

To read your configurations, it's pretty straightforward, use the `readConfig` function:

```typescript theme={null}
import { ConfigType } from "your-config-package";
import { readConfig } from "@typeconf/sdk";

// Path to your config without extension
const config: ConfigType = readConfig("path/to/config-dir/my-params");
```

The `readConfigFromFile` function returns your configuration object with full
type safety based on your schema.

## Type Safety

One of TypeConf's key features is complete type safety. Your IDE will provide
full autocomplete and type checking:

```typescript theme={null}
const config: ConfigType = readConfig("path/to/config-dir/my-params");

// TypeScript knows the exact type of your config
config.database.host; // ✅ Type safe
config.nonexistent; // ❌ TypeScript error
```

## Using with Different Frameworks

TypeConf works seamlessly with various frameworks and environments. Check out our framework-specific guides:
