I will never make a backend in C# ever again.

Just look at this bullshit:

official docks, PAGES long: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/...

confused devs running rampant: https://stackoverflow.com/questions...

absolute total GARBAGE

literally ANY other language or framework, you set an env file and you fuck off. of course microsoft has to make the most convoluted pile of shit horse shit fuck shit that confuses everyone. i shouldn't have to pray to the dev gods every time i spin off a staging or production build that my environment variables are set correctly

GOD
