The Typesafe Configuration library allows you to override the information set in the configuration file with environment variables or system properties. This is specially useful to easily change the configuration when deploying your project (e.g. to Heroku), so we want every configurable parameter in this project overridden for this purpose.
Notice there's a file within the project that allows to deploy the template to Heroku with just one click, defining the parameters that can be configured before deployment. Don't forget to add all the configurable parameters of the project to this file, so that Heroku is aware of them.
