Every developer has hit this moment — you have a side project, an API, or just something you want to test publicly, but you don't want to buy a domain just for that.
I hit this problem one too many times. So I built nxtdev.xyz — a free subdomain platform with real DNS control, built specifically for developers.
What is nxtdev.xyz?
nxtdev.xyz lets you claim a free subdomain like yourname.nxtdev.xyz and manage its DNS records directly — A, CNAME, TXT, MX — through a clean dashboard. No redirects, no tricks. Real DNS.
Why Free?
Because every developer deserves a real URL without a credit card. nxtdev.xyz is fully free — no hidden plans, no usage limits on the core feature
Try It
👉 nxtdev.xyz
Would love your feedback — especially what DNS features or integrations would make this more useful for your workflow. Drop a comment below! 🙏

I really like this idea but why not .dev? Can I sponsor you a dev extension.
