.env Is Deprecated

JavaScript
#1

Tell us what’s happening:
I’m using Repl.t for this exercise.

When I try to make an .env file, it says that it is deprecated. How can I go around this? I would prefer not to use my local computer for this exercise.

Replit updated their UI to use a secrets tab or something similar.

#3

There is a bunch of text there, but the challenge says

Note: If you are using Replit, you cannot create a .env file. Instead, use the built-in SECRETS tab to add the variable.

Thank you for your response. I’m not sure where this SECRETS tab is?

Should be one of the options on the left.
