I have been stuck in a lesson for a while because the bootdev client was sending the following header to my server:
Authorization: Bearer ${jwtTokenMike}
(Literally, without interpolating the variable)
The issue was that I made a mistake in a previous check and the variable wasn't being filled so the interpolation didn't work, so it was my mistake.
I think it would be better if instead of silently ignoring the non-existant variable the client showed a warning or an error of some kind to make the error more obvious.
