Extension for Visual Studio Code - Visual manager for .env files — switch profiles, mask secrets, edit variables
A modern visual editor for .env files in Visual Studio Code and Open VSX compatible editors. Easily switch between environment profiles, safely manage secrets, and edit variables without leaving your editor. Managing multiple .env files manually is slow and error-prone. Values stay hidden by default and can be revealed when needed. Generate a safe .env.example file containing only variable names without exposing sensitive values. Replace these placeholders with actual screenshots or animated GIFs. 👉 https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GauravPrajapati.env-profile-manager 👉 https://open-vsx.org/extension/GauravPrajapati/env-profile-manager No environment…from marketplace.visualstudio.com

Dotenv Mask Editor: No more embarrassing screen leaks of your .envJan 2026 · marketplace.visualstudio.com · ▲28Hi HN, I built this because I often work in coworking spaces or do screen sharing, and I've always had this fear of accidentally flashing my .env file with production secrets to the whole room (or recording). It’s a simple VS Code extension that opens .env files in a custom grid editor. It automatically masks any value longer than 6 characters so I can safely open the file to check keys without exposing the actual secrets. It runs 100% locally with zero dependencies (I know how sensitive these files are). It just reads the file, renders the grid, and saves it back as standard text. It's open…
EnvManagerJun 2026 · envmanager.com · ▲4I built this tool for myself, and the URL in this post points to it. I needed a secure way to store my environment variables because I work on many projects across multiple devices. Keeping each variable up‑to‑date on every device was a constant hassle. Now everything lives in a local file that I can pull and push with a simple CLI command. I never have to think about it again. The tool is also useful when you’re hiring freelancers who need access to staging or local environment variables for testing. Instead of handing over an entire .env file, only to have it linger for months and expose…

Envelope – A modern environment variable cli tool2024 · github.com · ▲103Hey HN! I've built this cli tool to manage env variables of a project, but mostly for fun and to try out Rust and the clap crate. I had this idea when I made a big mistake and broke some production stuff because I had a very messy .env file laying around in my project. I was implementing new features for one of my projects and in my .env file I had the test database url commented out and the production one was not. Long story short, I applied migrations to the production database instead of my local test one and broke a lot of production APIs :') I wanted a tool that could easily help me…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
