#### `config/kibana.dev.yml`
The `config/kibana.yml` file stores user configuration directives. Since this file is checked into source control, however, developer preferences can't be saved without the risk of accidentally committing the modified version. To make customizing configuration easier during development, the kibana CLI will look for a `config/kibana.dev.yml` file if run with the `--dev` flag. This file behaves just like the non-dev version and accepts any of the [standard settings](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/master/kibana-server-properties.html).

The `config/kibana.dev.yml` file is very commonly used to store some opt-in/**unsafe** optimizer tweaks which can significantly increase build performance.
