# Configure Your Environment Variables

Environment variables are the lifeblood of **Startup Starter Kits (SSK)**, giving you the power to customize and control your application’s behavior without touching a single line of code. From essential details like your company’s name to toggling dynamic features, let’s get your environment in perfect shape!

***

### **The Basics – Make It Personal**

Your key environment variables handle branding, URLs, and more. Here’s a quick example:

```bash
# Core Info (Make It Yours!)
NEXT_PUBLIC_COMPANY_NAME="Your Company Name"
NEXT_PUBLIC_EMAIL="contact@yourcompany.com"
NEXT_PUBLIC_COMPANY_WEBSITE="https://yourcompany.com"
NEXT_PUBLIC_FULL_URL="https://yourproduct.com"
```

🌟 **Tip**: Update these with your company’s details to make sure every user touchpoint feels on-brand.

***

### **Feature Flags – Control Features with Ease**

All feature flags in **SSK** are prefixed with `FF_` and let you control features on the fly. Want to run a new integration or disable a feature for testing? Just flip a flag!

#### **Example Feature Flags**

```bash
# Feature Toggles (Simple, Powerful)
FF_REWARDFUL=true
FF_LEMON=false
FF_STRIPE=true
```

These flags allow you to enable or disable features instantly, giving you the flexibility to experiment, test, and roll out new functionality without redeploying.

***

### **Setting Up in Vercel**

When you’re ready to deploy, make sure to add these environment variables in **Vercel**. Navigate to your project’s **Settings** tab, find **Environment Variables**, and add your keys and values. This ensures your application runs smoothly across all environments.

***

With your environment variables and feature flags configured, you’re ready to adapt, scale, and deliver an exceptional user experience! 🚀

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.startupstarterkits.com/start-now/env.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
