NextJS - Get rid of DotENV
I always disliked the .env file. Almost every time I was forced to place it on the top level of my app directory. At some point i started to use the npm config package.

For people which prefer code over text, feel free to checkout the finished implementation.

They can still be revealed by a crash dump or logging, so that is a caveat to consider in your code and build scripts.
