Use dotenv instead of env vars in webpack config

See original GitHub issue

Use dotenv and provide only a .env.example file instead of setting everything on each webpack config file.

Something like https://github.com/lucasbento/react-relay-pokemon/blob/master/webpack.prod.config.js#L29 which is using dotenv-webpack.

I totally see your point! That’s why we’ve created a dev stage for both __GITHUB_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID__ and __LAMBDA_AUTH__ which is preconfigured for convenience when running npm start.

I guess it’s a good thing to keep the number of dependencies and additional tools to a minimum. If it add a lot of value in terms of DX I’d be happy though to merge it in.
