Environment variables in VS Code

Instead of setting environment variables in your terminal, you can also set them in your user settings.json in VS Code. Here is an example for a GITHUB_TOKEN:

"terminal.integrated.env.osx": {
  "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_aBc1dEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz0123456789"
}

With settings sync active in VS Code, you can take your environment variables with you when working on another machine.
