+# Configuring CodeRabbit
+
+CodeRabbit offers flexible configuration options. There are two primary methods for configuring CodeRabbit:
+
+1. Using the CodeRabbit UI (Web Interface)
+2. Using a YAML Configuration File
+
+## 1. Using the CodeRabbit UI
+
+When you create an account and add repositories through the CodeRabbit web interface, you can configure settings for your organization and individual repositories.
+
+### Steps:
+1. Sign up or log in at [coderabbit.ai](https://coderabbit.ai)
+2. Navigate to the "Organization Settings" section or "Repositories" section
+3. Click "Add Repositories" to connect your Git repositories
+4. Use the UI to configure settings for each repository or at the organization level
+
+### Available UI Configuration Options:
+
+#### General Settings:
+- Review Language: Choose the natural language for CodeRabbit to write reviews (e.g., English (US))
+- Tone Instructions: Set the tone for reviews and chat
+- Early Access: Enable or disable early-access features
+- Fine-tune Your Reviews: Allow CodeRabbit to learn from your usage and improve over time
+
+#### Review Settings:
+- Customize review profile, summary options, and automated review preferences
+
+#### Chat Settings:
+- Configure chat-related options
+
+#### Knowledge Base:
+- Set up and manage your organization's knowledge base
+
+#### API Keys:
+- Create and manage API keys for accessing the CodeRabbit API
+
+> **Note:** Settings configured at the repository level will override organization-level settings.
+
+## 2. Using a YAML Configuration File
+
+For more advanced and version-controlled configuration, you can use a YAML file in your repository.
+
+### Steps:
+1. Create a file named `.coderabbit.yaml` in the root of your repository
+2. Add your configuration options to the file
+3. Commit and push the file to your repository
+
+### Sample `.coderabbit.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+# yaml-language-server: $schema=https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/schema.v2.json
+language: "en-US"
+early_access: false
+reviews:
+   profile: "chill"
+   request_changes_workflow: false
+   high_level_summary: true
+   poem: true
+   review_status: true
+   collapse_walkthrough: false
+   auto_review:
+      enabled: true
+      drafts: false
+chat:
+   auto_reply: true
+```
+
+### Key Configuration Options:
+
+- `language`: Set the language for CodeRabbit's responses
+- `early_access`: Enable/disable early access features
+- `reviews`: Configure review behavior and style
+- `chat`: Set chat-related options
+
+For a complete list of configuration options, refer to the [CodeRabbit Configuration Schema](https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/schema.v2.json).
+
+## Configuration Precedence
+
+CodeRabbit uses the following order of precedence for configuration:
+
+1. YAML file in the repository (highest precedence)
+2. UI configuration for individual repositories
+3. UI configuration for the organization (lowest precedence)
+
+## Tips
+
+- To convert existing UI configuration to YAML, use the `@coderabbitai configuration` command on any PR.
+- Ensure the `.coderabbit.yaml` file is present in the feature branch for CodeRabbit to review.
+- New pull requests or incremental commits will trigger CodeRabbit reviews once configured.
