yes, prefixing with VITE_ exposes to the client. for env variables you don't want exposed you have to use process.env with a non-prefixed variable
#Load secret variable from .env without exposing to client

this is an example from my project https://github.com/CubeArtisan/cubeartisan/blob/solid/.env_EXAMPLE https://github.com/CubeArtisan/cubeartisan/blob/solid/src/backend/mongoConnection.ts

@subtle breach I was following your example with process.env['MONGODB_USER'] but it doesn't seem to work
I name my file .env if that helps with my explanation
subtle breach
I'm gonna be honest, I don't fully understand environment variables. maybe if you give more of the context of your codebase? and maybe @carmine wave or @signal hollow could help better, they are def more experienced with solid and vite than me

I saw @hybrid tinsel shared this https://github.com/solidjs/solid-scripts/blob/master/config/env.js#L64
But I'm not sure how I can get it to work on my project yet

That's old. Create React App clone
I should deprecate it. It has been dead for 2 years

Could you point to a place that works with .env file?

I don't have an example off hand. It was a community PR from @warm shuttle I believe they use it in create-jd-app https://github.com/solidjs/solid-start/pull/585

Ye there are examples mentioned there
