The process for releasing appsettings specific to certain environments in a .Net core application involves the following steps:

1. Create separate appsettings files for each environment (e.g. appsettings.development.json, appsettings.production.json).
2. Configure the app to load the appropriate appsettings file for the current environment using the environment variable ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT.
3. In the development environment, add a user secrets configuration file (secrets.json) to store sensitive data (e.g. database connection strings) that should not be checked into source control.
4. Configure the app to use the user secrets configuration file in the development environment.
5. Avoid hardcoding sensitive data in the appsettings files.
6. Use environment variables to store configuration data that varies between environments (e.g. URLs, API keys).
7. Use a configuration provider like Azure Key Vault to securely store and manage sensitive configuration data in production.
