05/18/2022, 3:55 PMHey guys, question, is it possible to upload config files without S3? I'm using https://www.npmjs.com/package/config
but the 'config' folder created in 'backend' doesn't get uploaded.

05/18/2022, 4:03 PMIn my case, I'm using the 'config' package just to have a "cleaner" access to env vars. And in case it's needed static stage related params. why wouldn't you recommend it?

05/18/2022, 4:12 PMmy plan is to keep all secrets in env vars while only using static non-sensible data on environment jsons (if needed). I'll see how it goes 😛
