The way I did it: Go to any Text Editor, save the file with name ".env" without quotes.

And then go ahead and write your config variables into this file.

AUTH_SERVICE=google/ptc
USERNAME=account@gmail.com
PASSWORD=password
LOCATION_NAME=Some location, USA
RARITY_LIMIT=3
SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL=https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXX
DISTANCE_UNIT=meters/miles
NUM_STEPS=5

awesome thank you strange you can save it from an editor as a .env but not just by renaming it guessing its windows preventing an empty file name
