in game config

So how would I go about making an in game config for an addon. I have a bit of experience in .lua config but I wanna go a step further?

I would love to see an option panel in the interface options but I don't have to great amount of knowledge in that area, most of my Lua experience is with modifying existing frames.

Figured someone here knows a bit more about this stuff than I do, here's one of my addons if you wanna give me an example

I usually just use AceConfig when I need to add an in-game configuration menu. You just declare your options as a table and pass it to the library and it creates all the frames for you.

I believe there are alternative libraries around, but I can't recall their names at the moment. You could also just create the frames yourself, which may be the best idea if you only have a few options to deal with.

Well the end goal is to make a config for my ui which has a ton of options. So I'll probably check out AceConfig.
