If you are a busy developer juggling multiple projects, it's hard to keep track of yourenv files since they are on thegitignore list. Hold My Env provides the organization, sharing and encryption. Take your beer with you and we will hold yourenv'ees.
Hello Product Hunt! When I am about to revive my old project from the grave, I was not able to do so quickly because of a single file, my .env file. Where I put some of my sensitive keys and other configuration variables. I was able to revive it but it took me the whole day to fix all of my environment variables. Then, the idea of Hold My Env came to life. The name "Hold My Env" was derived from "Hold My Beer" humor where i find it catchy and easy to remember.
The idea is simple, paste the contents of your .env file and we handle the storage and encryption. Your encrypted data is stored on our database and will never be stored in plain text.
Organization of projects is also simple and easy. Each project contains multiple .env files for staging, for local and for production right? And it could be shared to your team for read-access only to prevent tampering and messing it up.
I am excited for this launch as this is my first product on this platform. I am open for any valuable insights and suggestions to keep improving this product.
Cheers!
Update as of 7:30 PM PHT:
Just noticed that Lemon Squeezy, my payment provider is still not able to approved my app. So temporarily, payment is handled by PayPal. Just email me at [email protected] once you have paid for the service and which plan did you purchase. Thank you for understanding!
