# How to migrate your traditionally configured Jenkins
So you're tired of manually configuring Jenkins each time you want to introduce a plugin or change existing setup?
Or maybe you're not feeling confident enough with the change you have in mind?
Jenkins Configuration as Code solves both problems - you don't need to access Jenkins to implement a change and you can always revert to previous version of configuration (if you keep your configuration under version control)
## [NOT SUPPORTED YET] Export existing configuration
To be able to do that - once it becomes supported feature - you need to install the plugin manually on your working Jenkins instance and use export function.
## Create jenkins.yaml from scratch
We've decided to use yaml format so writing the configuration "by hand" should be easy. Your existing Jenkins can be also used as a documentation - yaml file tries to mimic UI you're used to as much as possible.
Plugin provides documentation generated for your specific Jenkins instance - after you install it, and it is available at:
http://[your_jenkins_url]/plugin/configuration-as-code/
Various samples of plugins' configuration can be found in [demos](../demos) folder
