About Hue Config Viewer
This app requires a Philips Hue system with a Hue bridge. Its sole purpose is to view the configuration inside the Hue bridge, compare it to a "registry viewer". The Hue Config Viewer is not an editor; it will not write to the configuration. It does not control your lights.
Hue bridge configuration keys and values are shown horizontally next to each other. If you find the fonts too small then use a landscape orientation, it has more space horizontally and uses a larger font. When you retrieve the configuration again (sync icon), the changes are highlighted.
Are you a Hue developer or user, interested what is the configuration in your Hue bridge? With the Hue Config Viewer you can see the configuration. If you want to understand the configuration, go to the Philips page https://www.meethue.com and look for "developers" and then "Philips hue API".
The app has an option to share your bridge configuration. Always be careful when you share data and think with whom you will be sharing this. Your bridge configuration describes which lights, sensors, and switches you have; your home automation behaviour and the apps you use. Some programs seem to have a size limit for sharing. If sharing fails or a bridge configuration is truncated, then sharing via clip board is an option.
For your privacy, all “whitelist” entries in the bridge configuration are partially replaced by “…” Both in the user interface as well as in any shared data.

Only thing missing is ability to modify raw values. I'm not asking for fancy UI, to be clear: just the ability to write and delete key-value pairs. Why? Because some Hue apps pollute the configuration with junk data, eg. obviously generated profile names or parts of profiles that have otherwise been deleted etc. This unfortunately tends to result in generally confusing experience when using apps that are susceptible to such data inconsistency, ie. Hue Pro (I guess other ones just disregard it or something).

Amazing and great

Great idea but needs the ability to modify config. I'd love to delete some groups that a deprecated Hue Control app created and I have no way of doing this.
