ng config reads and writes values in the Angular workspace configuration file (angular.json). Configuration values are accessed using JSON path dot notation. When only a path is provided, the current value is displayed. When a value is also provided, the configuration is updated.
This command is useful for scripting Angular workspace setup and for inspecting or modifying build configurations, default schematics, and CLI behavior.

jsonPath

JSON path to the configuration value using dot notation (e.g., projects.myApp.architect.build).

New value to set at the specified JSON path. If omitted, the current value is printed.

Access the global CLI configuration (~/.angular-cli.json) instead of the project-level angular.json.

Display help information.

Part of Angular CLI. The configuration file must be valid JSON. Invalid JSON paths will produce errors. Changes to angular.json affect all developers working on the project.

ng config was introduced with Angular CLI 6 in 2018 as part of the workspace configuration overhaul that replaced .angular-cli.json with angular.json.
