 \subsection{Global configuration interface}
 
+Because the game programmer only has access to interfaces within the public \gls{api}
+namespace (\codeinline{crepe::api}), they would not be able to configure aspects of
+engine-internal components. To work around this access restriction, a global
+interface was made that stores arbitrary data, which can be accessed both internally
+and via the public \gls{api}.

+\subsubsection{Architecture}
+\label{sec:config:architecture}
+
+The global configuration interface consists of a single singleton class that can be
+accessed globally (see \cref{fig:class-config}). This class holds several anonymous
+structs, which are used to organize options per system or engine component.
