I was always thinking it was mean something around Resource or Configuration ... For what it means it's just off how is used now, for example, the common `.prettierc` is a JSON configuration object, just that. I feel like culturally the `rc` suffix means Configuration. Maybe unlikely but maybe still, this is one of those things how language evolves where a word/suffix has an original meaning that is lost in the practical use day today. Well, at least! I had no idea the meaning behind it, and it amazes me how I never think it about it.

In .prettierc only c is the suffix actually. `rc` has never meant configuration for me. I actually always wondered about what it meant too.

  They meant .prettierrc: https://prettier.io/docs/en/configuration.html https://prettier.io/docs/en/configuration.html
