Manager vs Command Line
SnailyCAD Manager will automatically compile your .env file when the CAD is started to save changes made to the configuration. If you're using a standalone (command-line) installation, this must be manually done. More information can be found in the SnailyCAD Documentation​
This is for command-line specific installations, you don't need to follow this for a SnailyCAD Manager installation.
