Wise is a configuration manager built on Symfony [Config](http://symfony.com/doc/current/components/config/index.html). It supports data formats such as INI, JSON, PHP (native), XML, and YAML. You can also normalize and validate configuration data.

```
$wise = Herrera\Wise\Wise::create('/path/to/config');
$data = $wise->load('example.yml');
```
