Can somebody explain to me why we need an env folder with .mjs files in the T3 starter project?
Wondering why we can't use a standard
.env file or .env.local or what the advantages are of doing it the ways it's done in the t3 starter?5 Replies
Typesafety. These files are used to validate the fields in the .env and also to ensure that they are used correctly later on in the project. And the different extensions are for the FE and BE
thanks a lot! so it's not like you couldn't do it with .env files, it's just neater because of type safety! thanks 🙂
Yeah. It’s an added layer of safety.
