This is really convenient.

Such a field can be useful for any options list that is being extended. You can add new and delete existing options.

  1. Hi Chandresh,

    In general, this module is for creating configurations and uses the standard Magento functionality. For the minimum quantity of products in cart, there are default settings for each product.

  2. I have to create configuration like Minimum quantity allowed in cart with one additional field. How can i create like that in default magento 2?
