securely storing API key-value pairs
As a non-pro developer working on a personal expo react native app, I have learned that keeping my api keys and values in a .env file is not secure. I'm using AppWrite as my backend, and I am assuming I should store such sensitive data like these variables somewhere on the server and access them on the server without having to put them insecurely in the .env file: APPWRITE_ENDPOINT, APPWRITE_PLATFORM, APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID, APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID, APPWRITE_USER_COLLECTION_ID
Can someone point me in the right direction about handling this problem? I haven't been able to find a good resource for this. I'm developing with Expo and AppWrite.
TL;DR
Developers are seeking advice on securely storing API key-value pairs for their Expo React Native app using AppWrite as the backend. They are looking for a solution to avoid storing sensitive data like API keys in a .env file. The recommended approach would be to store such sensitive data on the server and access them securely on the server without exposing them in the .env file.
None of those values are (or should be) sensitive data.
