@mrmaramreddy Can I work on this issue ? I have narrowed the issue down to a regex used for matching environment variables and that does not contain the .

Current regex

const HOPP_ENVIRONMENT_REGEX = /(<<[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+>>)/g

Regex after adding adding dot (.) to support highlight for env variables like client.secret

const HOPP_ENVIRONMENT_REGEX = /(<<[a-zA-Z0-9-_.]+>>)/g

Can I go ahead and make the change ?

On a side note, the tooltip showing the env variable details is still not showing up dot env variables. Still looking into it to see what the issue. Any pointers would be highly helpful.
