@singhsoldier13 I don't think this library is meant to have the env variables still available after the current node session (and basically each node command you run is treated as a different session).

Too bad @kentcdodds is not paying attention to this project... can someone please confirm this is the correct functionality?

Yes, that's correct.

If you'd like to help monitor the issues, that'd be super.
