Cocoon allow you to manage configuration with a .conf file and a STON syntax. You can see how Cocoon work with the class PRCocoonConfiguration of Pillar. I'll try to create a demo of Cocoon when I'll have the time.
But to make simple you can define some parameters on your configuration and you give them a default value. Then if the user define a configuration Cocoon will change the default value for the value of the user. You can also use the value to create something else with CocoonSTONInterpreter. (For example on Pillar we check the outputType parameter and we choose or Writer in the PRCocoonInterpreter). And after you can use Cocoon parameters in your application.
