This document outlines the process for deploying configuration changes from a live "from" Drupal site to a development "to" site. It describes finding the configuration files to change, moving them to the staging directory of the development site, and then importing and checking the changes using Drush commands. The goal is to synchronize configuration between environments to test changes before deploying them live.
