How to use environment variables from github secret?

[Joe-ChenZ]

Hi all! thanks for making this wonderful template. However, I wasn't sure how to use github secrets to replace hard-coded tokens and usernames. I looked at some of the resources online and it seems like we need to use Powershell (I am using Windows) to fetch env var from GitHub. But the website seems to be built from the remote instead of the local repo. It doesn't seem like any of those scripts are being pushed to the remote?

Can you give me a brief run-through of how to do this?

Thanks

you are to create .env file inside the root directory and copy the file inside the env.example into it. change REACT_APP_GITHUB_TOKEN and GITHUB_USERNAME to generated the key from your GitHub profile and username
