Seems odd to announce new features without calling out to the fact that libraries with the same name in other languages have had those same features for years.

Seems odd to announce new features without calling out to the fact that libraries with the same name in other languages have had those same features for years. (for example, the dotenv gem in Ruby)
- smartplaya2001 2y agoNode.js already has built in support for .env https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.6.0#built-in-env-file-support https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v20.6.0#built-in-env-file...
- bdcravens 2y agoTrue, but the dotenv npm package has been around much longer than that support (11 years vs 9 months), and the .env support in Node doesn't yet support features like auto-inclusion of environment-specific files.
