in reply to .env loading the dot env file?
It depends how complicated/rigorous you want to make it. I would probably start from Config::General as with features like -InterPolateEnv and -AllowMultiOptions you can get much of the functionality and configurability built-in.
I have seen the .env file mentioned in several applications and environments
It might be helpful to know which ones. Just a thought.
