# Naming Of The Vercel Config File
|
|
|
|
[Vercel](https://vercel.com/), the company/service, used to be called Now. With
|
|
any renaming comes some consistency challenges, even at the level of software.
|
|
|
|
The naming of the file for configuring your project used to be `now.json`. It
|
|
is _now_ `vercel.json`.
|
|
|
|
For [backwards compatibility
|
|
reasons](https://vercel.com/docs/platform/frequently-asked-questions#conflicting-configuration-files),
|
|
you can still use either. You cannot and should not have both though.
|
|
|
|
If you're working with an existing project that uses `now.json`. It is fine to
|
|
continue with that naming. It may eliminate some future confusion if you are to
|
|
rename it to `vercel.json`. If you're starting a new project, I'd recommend
|
|
using `vercel.json`. All the documentation you'll read uses this newer naming
|
|
convention.
