Environment Variables Guide

How to manage environment variables in your BuiltStack project.

  1. Create a .env file in your project root.
  2. Add variables like DATABASE_URL, RESEND_API_KEY, etc.
  3. Never commit your .env file to version control.
  4. Use environment variable management in your deployment platform for production secrets.
