Description

Question you want answered

How do I find the absolute path to config field in tauri.conf.json

Where did you look for an answer?

For instance it's not clear where should I place config/#nsisconfig inside tauri.conf.json.
I think the docs should somehow describe on each config field what's the absolute config path to that field and where to add it exactly inside tauri.conf.json

Research direction

Start at the v2 config reference page linked in the issue, especially the nsisconfig section, and inspect how configuration fields are documented in the repository. Determine where absolute paths should be shown for fields in tauri.conf.json and whether the convention can be applied consistently. Done means the relevant config documentation explains where each field belongs, including nsisconfig.
