Practical Microservices: Missing .env in chapter 1
Chapter 1 requires a .env file to run, but I didn’t see it mentioned in the chapter.
First Post!

Hi TheSwitch,
The code for the first chapter does include a .env file. Did something break for you because of that file?
I likely didn’t call it out because I wasn’t trying to not get too deep into details at that point, preferring to just do the minimum to show the design problem that an MVC approach was going to give us.
