+## PHP Configuration
+
+As a lightweight alternative to a full PHP configuration file, you can specify a set of prefixed environment variables when starting your container with these variables turned into ini-format configuration.
+
+Any environment variable whose name is prefixed with `PHP_INI-` will have the prefix removed, and will be added to a new ini file before the main command starts.
