Share settings with ENV and the [key] syntax

jComponent 20 · jcomponent@20 jcomponentfrontendconfig Executed with jComponent 20

ENV(name, value) registers a value for the whole page and ENV(name) reads it. Wherever jComponent accepts a text that may contain [name] (for example the URL of AJAX() and IMPORT()), the placeholder is replaced with the value, so you set the address of your API in one place. '[name]'.env() does the same replacement on any string.
