I was just wondering if there was any standardized convention for .env environment variable files. If I had multiple setups (e.g. development, staging, production), what should they be titled?
I've seen:
.env.development, ...development.env, ...settings.development.env, ....env, .env.staging, .env.production, ...If there isn't a standard, are there arguments for which to use (kinda like "" vs '' for strings in JS)? Which do you use and why?
I prefer .env at the end ex: .production.env because last word after . indicates extension. VSCode does not recognize the file as .env file if you do .env.production
