+**Configuration Options:**
+
+- **Synology**
+  - `useHttps`: Set to `true` to use HTTPS (recommended for production). Default: `false`
+  
+- **Unifi**
+  - `verifySsl`: Set to `true` if you have valid SSL certificates. Default: `false` (allows self-signed certificates)
+
 **Note:** Both Synology and Unifi are optional. The dashboard will work with just Docker if you don't configure them.
