What is the most common approach to configure a backend app?
- Having one way of configuring the app is excellent. You can either prefer environment variables, a file, or flags. You can do what Viper does by reading the file and unmarshalling it. The built-in flag package is enough for your flag-based config needs. If you want to prefer environment variables, I prefer https://github.com/kelseyhightower/envconfig

Building Robust Applications in Go: Integrating Envconfig, Gorm, and OpenSearch
To extract values from the system environment, I utilize envconfig, a Go package. Envconfig facilitates mapping system environment variables to a Go struct. These Go structs are exposed through a config package, enabling other parts of the application to access them.
