The new configuration file format is backwards compatible with existing components. Because of this, there is no need for component developers to update their components. + +The new file is named configuration.yaml and if it can't be found in your config directory, Home Assistant will instead try to find the old configuration file, home-assistant.conf. + +The home-assistant.conf.example has been replaced with an updated configuration.yaml.example. + +Users of Home Assistant should migrate as the old configuration format will be depicted.
