 '''We recommend to avoid writing out variables you know you are not needed and also variables which are redundant.'''
+You can change the default level of output using the keywords in sechiba.card and stomate.card for offline experiences (orchidee.card and stomate.card in coupled experiences). See comments in these files for how to activate/deactivate files, set frequency and level of output for each file.
