Description

@codebestia
codebestia
opened on Aug 27, 2026

Write apps/backend/docs/concepts-configuration.md explaining src/config.ts and src/config/rateLimits.ts: which variables are validated at boot and cause a hard startup failure, which are read lazily at first use, and how loadEnv() relates to the lazily-constructed object-store singleton.

Acceptance criteria:

  • Lists the boot-validated set and shows the failure output when one is missing
  • Explains the lazy-vs-eager split and why the object store is built lazily (avoiding a circular import)
  • Documents the production/development branch in lib/storage.ts that selects the real S3 client or the local-disk store
  • Cross-links the environment-variable reference rather than duplicating the full table

    @johdanike has applied to work on this issue as part of the Stellar Wave Program's 8th wave.

    I'd love to take this on! I will write concepts-configuration.md to break down the boot-validated versus lazily-loaded environment variables in src/config.ts. I will explicitly document how the S3/local-disk singleton avoids circular imports and cross-link the environment variable references perfectly. Structuring and documenting scalable backend configurations is standard practice for me. Let me know if I can get assigned!
