Moving a change to other servers Is there a way a person can ensure that if he makes a change to a drupal 8 website via the UI (e.g. Adding/modifying a field to a content type, creating/editing a view) that this can be automatically applied to another developers localhost on the git pull or on a staging/production server?

Currently (I have moved from Drupal 7) I am doing this manually which is a pain. I've been told that Features is the way to go from Drupal 8 (and Drupal 7 apparently).
Features in D8 is the way to sync features across multiple sites. And was the default in D7 to import and export database changes. Which in D8 is solved by Configuration management.

Please read the docs (thoroughly): Managing your site's configuration.

You routinely have to drush cex after you've made changes via the UI. This will export database values into multiple (hundreds/thousands) *.yml files. Then your colleagues will have to drush cim after they pulled the latest *.yml files to get the changes imported into their DB.
