std-env is a tiny, zero-dependency JavaScript utility for standardizing environment variables across environments. It simplifies accessing and managing environment configurations, providing consistent behavior. It ensures type-casting and default values for environment variables, preventing unexpected application behavior due to missing or incorrect configurations. Designed for Node.js and browser environments, std-env promotes robust and predictable application deployments by standardizing environment variable handling.
The std-env npm package had consistent releases in 2018, peaking in November. Release frequency dropped significantly from 2019-2020. There were sporadic releases in 2021-2023 with a burst in August 2023. In 2024 there was only one release in November. 2025 has seen releases in March and April of 2025, but none since.
