[node-polyfill-webpack-plugin](https://github.com/Richienb/node-polyfill-webpack-plugin) provides these. | |

It's cloud agnostic so that you can deploy your secrets anywhere – without [risky third-party integrations](https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/05/circleci-breach/).

| ## [16.0.2](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/compare/v16.0.1...v16.0.2) (2022-08-30) | |
| ### Added | |
| - Export `env-options.js` and `cli-options.js` in package.json for use with downstream [dotenv-expand](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv-expand) module | |
| ## [16.0.1](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/compare/v16.0.0...v16.0.1) (2022-05-10) | |
| ### Changed | |
| - Minor README clarifications | |
| - Development ONLY: updated devDependencies as recommended for development only security risks ([#658](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/pull/658)) | |
| ## [16.0.0](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/compare/v15.0.1...v16.0.0) (2022-02-02) | |
| ### Added | |
| - _Breaking:_ Backtick support 🎉 ([#615](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/pull/615)) | |
| If you had values containing the backtick character, please quote those values with either single or double quotes. | |
| ## [15.0.1](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/compare/v15.0.0...v15.0.1) (2022-02-02) | |
| ### Changed | |
| - Properly parse empty single or double quoted values 🐞 ([#614](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/pull/614)) | |
| ## [15.0.0](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv/compare/v14.3.2...v15.0.0) (2022-01-31) | |
| `v15.0.0` is a major new release with some important breaking changes. | |
| ### Added | |
| - _Breaking:_ Multiline parsing support (just works. no need for the flag.) | |
| ### Changed | |
| - _Breaking:_ `#` marks the beginning of a comment (UNLESS the value is wrapped in quotes. Please update your `.env` files to wrap in quotes any values containing `#`. For example: `SECRET_HASH="something-with-a-#-hash"`). | |
| ..Understandably, (as some teams have noted) this is tedious to do across the entire team. To make it less tedious, we recommend using [dotenv cli](https://github.com/dotenv-org/cli) going forward. It's an optional plugin that will keep your `.env` files in sync between machines, environments, or team members. | |
| ### Removed | |
| - _Breaking:_ Remove multiline option (just works out of the box now. no need for the flag.) | |
