Encrypt sensitive config data
Most projects are parameterized at least with regards to sensitive config data, like credentials or dotenv files. These need to be stored somewhere, but not in git. They also need to be available when running previews or onStart scripts. IDX could either integrate with Secret Manager or allow its own config store (compare Gitpod's repo specific env vars: https://www.gitpod.io/docs/configure/repositories/environment-variables#environment-variables).
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your idea with us and for participating in our community.
Because we have officially announced the sunsetting of Firebase Studio and are currently focusing on the migration process, we are no longer accepting or implementing new feature requests for this product.
We appreciate your support and understanding as we transition to our next chapter.
