Questions

Are my secrets safe?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored.

What does .env.example do?

It keeps every key but empties the values, so you can commit it to show which variables the app needs.

Which value wins for duplicate keys?

Most loaders (like dotenv) keep the last one. Dedupe keeps the last value too.
