About to chat live with @nickyt.online about varlock, astro, env var management, and everything dev tools. Come have a listen!

For sure :) we’ll be adding a plugin system soon that introduces custom functions to interact with different providers.

Have you seen varlock.dev

Great opportunity to work with some awesome humans!

New varlock vite integration is now live. More vite-based framework integrations coming shortly, and works already with qwik!

Your env vars deserve a little more magic in their lives 🧙‍♂️✨

varlock.dev/integrations...

As always, @joshwcomeau.com provides an amazing explanation of how something on the web works. This time it's a deep dive into SVGs! <3

Devs are leaking sensitive api keys to AI coding assistants every day without realizing it. We are soon launching some encryption helpers to get these keys out of plaintext and totally solve that problem.

Plus our guardrails (leak detection) helps devs using AI move quickly w/ more safety.

🔥 My friends at DMNO have a new devtool: varlock.

It’s a drop-in replacement for dotenv, and adds a bunch of cool stuff like validation and type safety. It stores the secrets themselves in password managers or encrypted vaults.

The landing page also has a very cool RPG vibe 😄
varlock.dev

We recently launched varlock.dev. Similar to DMNO but built on top of the .env files you're already using.

The early feedback has been really positive.

Check it out, ⭐ star us on GitHub and let us know what you think!

Over at @dmno.bsky.social, we use our @1password.bsky.social plugin every day - keeping our secrets synced, validated, and secured behind biometric unlock - away from prying AIs 🚫🤖

Incredibly proud to share we are the first feature on their new developer blog ❤️

Also, if you haven't already, check out moonrepo.dev - I found it does a great job of fixing some of the rough edges of turborepo.

Looks neat! Do you have any stated goals of how you want it to be different than existing tools?

Turborepo does the cli ui thing with multiple tabs. it's... fine.

Seems like moving it into a web browser would probably gives more opportunity to build a much better DX. Have been contemplating building that for quite a while...

have you seen dmno.dev ? There is an Infisical plugin :)

This looks fun! Will apply shortly for dmno.dev :)

Thanks for the mention :D

dmno.dev is (in my humble and very biased opinion) the best way to deal with config in all of your projects, regardless what your stack looks like.

welcome to the era of enshittification

Not only does it give you more confidence, but it lets you refactor the inner workings of things without wasting time fixing tests!

Aw thanks! We think it's pretty neat too <3

Would love for more folks to give it a spin and hear feedback. Even if you hate it - would love to know why. Hop on into our discord chat.dmno.dev and say hi! :)

FUN :)

idea for the keyboard - add a tiny subtle shadow on the keys that adjusts as the key goes up and down and it will look even better. Check dmno.dev for a 3d button I just wired up (check light mode on desktop)

Remember being able to work on a single html file and upload it via FTP? 😂

Not that I miss those days at all but I sure am grateful to have experienced the full journey from there to here to understand what's happening. I feel bad for folks just learning now - it's extremely overwhelming!

Pretty proud of this very snazzy new css 3d button. Made it to match the styling of the 3d dominos. See it live at dmno.dev (better on desktop to see hover)

Thanks @joshwcomeau.com for the easing tips on your 3d button article :)
