W3Teal

I buy an domain

I just buy an domain, and I think it's really worth it. I can use it for my projects, websites, and... for giving an free subdomains to anyone else too. That's why instead of choosing my own name to buy (w3teal), I really took an several days to experimenting an short names to use, and what I got is ill. You know, I've have dreaming to create an free subdomain service like is-a.dev which is, I use for my website, and js.org for my project, and I really put my trust on them. I didn't need to take my money at all, I just need to create an quality content and have an patience.

All I know, my.id domains are pretty cheap, in less than an dollar price (in Rumahweb, which is ~0.80), and then $1.6 in the later years. The best part is, you can use any names you want, the price would be the same, doesn't matter the length. That's how I went with ill. That's looks narrow and easy to remembered.

And it's pretty to mixed with other texts, as it's an neutral letters.

w3teal.ill.my.id
robinson.ill.my.id
sushy4x.ill.my.id

So then, I start to learn how to make services like this, first, I need to add the domain to Cloudflare, and change the nameservers. And then, find some subdomain services to learn and fork in, and then, I founding that part-of.my.id/register is very easy to use. I just need to create some secrets like:

And...it's simply works! I didn't hesitate to make it into an public repo, and starting to get some people in. For now, the repo documents is still not clear, and I need to make the website and so on... The repo is in github.com/w3teal/ill.my.id. You can see the example in domains/gmx.json, and it's live at gmx.ill.my.id!

Stay tuned! Thanks for Rumahweb, Cloudflare, and part-of.my.id to make this possible.
