Drupal config vs Site Studio packages
Site Studio leverages Drupal configuration entities for all templates, components and styles that are created using the low-code interface. As such the package export and import process utilises the Drupal core configuration management workflow at it's core, however, it is important to note that the two are not interchangeable and Site Studio's packaging system should be used due to the additional functionality it provides as highlighted below.
When using Site Studio package management alongside Drupal core configuration management the Config Ignore and Config Split modules should also be configured.
