# Mandarine.json

By creating a file called `mandarine.json` in the root of your current working directory, you can assign some behaviors to Mandarine.

**Json structure**&#x20;

```typescript
    propertiesFilePath: string;
    denoEnv: {
        [prop: string]: string
    }
```

* propertiesFilePath
  * defines the path of your **properties.json** file without having to necessarily have `./src/main/resources/properties.json` which is the default location [(See more here)](https://mandarineframework.gitbook.io/mandarine-ts/mandarine-core/properties#setting-your-own-properties)
* denoEnv
  * allows the creation of *Deno environmental* keys & values.&#x20;
