Show HN: VS Code extension for dotenv-diff

I recently published a VS Code extension for dotenv-diff, this is quite simpler than the dotenv-diff npm package. The problem: you don't always want to install a dependency. The solution: a VS Code extension so you don't have to install a dependency — it just works out of the box. This version of dotenv-diff is simpler, it simply does: - Warn when you have an environment variable that is used in the code but not defined in .env - Warn when you have a .env variable that is not used anywhere in the code Feedback or suggestions are very welcome!
