+#### Custom alias prefix
+
+If your aliases are prefixed with another keyword than `alias`, you may configure this using the `aliasPrefix` property. You may also include the prefix in the keys of your alias json file. Here is an example:
+
+ ```json
+  {
+    "account": "[MAINNET_ACCOUNT_ID]",
+    "aliases": ["./aliases.mainnet.json"],
+    "aliasPrefix": "REPL",
+    "aliasesContainsPrefix": true,
+  }
+```
+
+and then with your `aliases.mainnet.json` like this:
+
+
+```json
+{
+  "REPL_NAME": "world"
+}
+```
+
+If your widget file looks like this:
+
+```tsx
+export default <h1>Hello ${REPL_NAME}!</h1>;
+```
+
+Then the alias will be replaced like this:
+
+```tsx
+export default <h1>Hello world!</h1>;
+```
+
 ## Customizing the Gateway
 
 Running the bos-workspace dev server will start a local gateway with a standard [near-social-vm](https://github.com/NearSocial/VM) installed unless the `--no-gateway` flag is provided in your dev command:
