 VSCode (and VSCode addon) supports the JSON schemas which will automatically validate the config. This can be added by adding `# yaml-language-server: $schema=http://frigate_host:5000/api/config/schema.json` to the top of the config file. `frigate_host` being the IP address of Frigate or `ccab4aaf-frigate` if running in the addon.

+title: The Video Pipeline
+---
+Frigate uses a sophisticated video pipeline that starts with the camera feeds and progressively applies transformations to them (e.g. decoding, motion detection, etc.).
+
+This guide provides an overview to help users put the key Frigate concepts on a map.
