      This file allows to add some config definitions that are needed for our task. For the possible options have a look at the global [config.json](../../web/config.json). Be careful not to overwrite config defitions from the global file. A good practice wood be to prefix the names of definitions with parts of the library name. Always put them in a separate category so that they do not interfere with the system ones.
-     The defined config items can later be accessed in the code (see the example in [GwExampleTask.cpp](GwExampleTask.cpp)).

      You can add javascript code that will contribute to the UI of the system. The WebUI provides a small API that allows you to "hook" into some functions to include your own parts of the UI. This includes adding new tabs, modifying/replacing the data display items, modifying the status display or accessing the config items.
      For the API refer to [../../web/index.js](../../web/index.js#L2001).
      To start interacting just register for some events like api.EVENTS.init. You can check the capabilities you have defined to see if your task is active.
