Example: Locals

Reduce repetition and build computed values using file-scoped locals.

Learn more about Locals.

What You'll See

• Basic locals: Define reusable values within a file
• Dependency resolution: Locals can reference other locals
• Context access: Locals can access settings, vars, and env from the same file
• File-scoped isolation: Each stack file has independent locals
