Great article @lauracharvey . There are so many great hosting platforms these days that make it so easy to get started with your own presence on the web. I have used Netlify, vercel, github pages, heroku, and digital ocean. They are all great.
It's really important to get in a rhythm of deploying things and have a good grasp of the full process early on as you are learning. It helps to form good habits about how you structure your projects.
Now that you have lauracharvey.dev/ you can deploy anything you want for free on a subdomain.
Thanks for the feedback!! Subdomain 🤔 brb checking with my mate google
It would be like
super-amazing.lauracharvey.dev
Once you have your dns settings already configured with a hosting provider, adding sub-domains is super simple. I think netlify might even take care of all of it for you. I was looking at the last couple that I did and don't see any records on my dns provider.
Otherwise if your hosting provider does not take care of it automatically you can set up a CNAME with your registrar.
Here is one that I had setup for myself.
👆 this one sets up default-kedro-157.waylonwalker.com/
Especially with the simplicity of deploying to netlify you can go bananas releasing toy projects almost as easy as a code pen, and have a nice url.
Great article, thanks for sharing! I always used Heroku for uni or personal projects but I'm definitely liking Netlify better because Heroku's free tier goes to sleep so unfortunately it's not a good fit for a small but professional site like a portfolio. Great find Laura! I'll try it out.
Good article I enjoyed reading it. I started off with HostGator before moving my website to Vercel (formerly Zeit). And now it's on Netlify. I can't say that I miss cPanel at the moment 😁
You haven't failed to impress.
Good to know 😁
Thanks for sharing this detailed information with us. Hope will be able to get benefited of this :)
Great article! Personally I use Heroku and Repl.it for hosting database and websites for my school projects. They are free and beginner-friendly :)
Also good options 😊 thanks for the feedback!
Can't wait to read through this!
Yay! Hope you enjoy it 😁
Well done Laura!! This is fab!
Thanks Laura ♥️
