(Warning: I am being Dennis Downer) Meanwhile, we're still waiting on WebSockets and it's been nearly 10 years.

Everyone should read the PR https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/48890. It doesn't traverse parent directories, it doesn't have good overwrite/merge logic, multiline support, or variable expansion - things that dotenv has supported for years (sometimes with add-ons). This is another half-useful implementation that the majority will end up ignoring, and keep using better-suited third party packages for.

Node is committee'd to death, and the comments in that PR are further proof. I've been in the Node ecosystem since 2010, and my money is on Bun and Deno to lead the way forward.
