[Great write up Joanna! The .env can often be mysterious when starting out and I’m glad you mention that it needs to be included in the gitignore! A lot of us at some point have pushed a env file full of db creds into GitHub 😂. Well done, and I look forward to more articles!!](https://hashnode.com/posts/what-is-env-file-in-nodejs/64cb0da93f957ec7a471aa35/comment/64cba4a6168be6c0a17e611d)
