• NODE_ENV: production or development
• REACT_APP_CLIENT: Client base URL (i.e. http://localhost:3000)
• REACT_APP_API: API base URL (i.e. http://localhost:3001). When not set, the client will default to http://localhost:3001 and API will automatically initialize a new ngrok instance on boot to handle uPort callbacks.
• PORT: Client port to listen to (i.e. 3000). For the client, PORT > 3000
• API_PORT: API port to listen to (i.e. 3001. For the API, API_PORT > PORT > 3001
• UPORT_PRIVATE_KEY: uPort signing key. Can be generated through const { did, privateKey } = Credentials.createIdentity() or uPort My Appps

Client is only aware of environment variables starting with REACT_APP_.

Environment variables can also be set through .env files, see .env.example in packages/<name>/.
