The Enhanced Configs feature makes it possible for service providers to customize their service's configs to a great deal and determine which configs are prominently shown to user without making any UI code changes. Customization includes providing a service friendly layout, better controls (sliders, combos, lists, toggles, spinners, etc.), better validation (minimum, maximum, enums), automatic unit conversion (MB, GB, seconds, milliseconds, etc.), configuration dependencies and improved dynamic recommendations of default values.

  A service provider can accomplish all the above just by changing their service definition in the stacks/ folder.
