Thank you! This is our plan indeed! Environment variables are still by far the most popular approach for storing secrets - and we are trying to create a better (more secure) alternative for managing environment variables and secrets than, let's say, .env files, and at the same time an easier alternative compared to other secrets managers. With time, we will be adding more niche and secure approaches mentioned in this thread to direct the developer community.

And `password` is still by far the most popular password.

Why not just call it environment management, and warn ENV is not secret, so you don't spread the wrongness?
