Live Env Validator

Live Env Validator is a Visual Studio Code extension that helps prevent runtime errors caused by misconfigured environment variables. It actively checks your code for process.env.SOMETHING and underlines any variables that are not defined in your specified .env files. This simple validation saves you from frustrating debugging sessions and ensures your application has the configuration it needs to run correctly.

Features

• Configurable Env Files: Specify which .env files to use for validation (e.g., .env, .env.local, .env.production).
