Domains

dAppling has support for both ENS and DNS domains.

Introduction to Domains

A domain is like an easy-to-remember address for a website on the internet, such as dAppling.network.

DNS translates human-friendly domain names to computer-readable IP addresses, a process known as DNS resolution.

Here's how a DNS query unfolds:

User's Request: Enter a domain like example.dAppling.network in your browser.
Recursive Resolver: If the IP is not cached, the browser queries a recursive resolver.
DNS Server Hierarchy: The resolver consults a series of DNS servers.
IP Address Retrieval: The authoritative nameserver provides the IP address.

DNS is structured hierarchically with root, TLD, and authoritative nameservers.

DNS queries are optimized for speed, with caching mechanisms in browsers and resolvers.

Deploying a project on dAppling.network requires configuring DNS settings to point your domain to the correct IP address.

Your Dashboard provides guidance on setting various DNS records.

SSL Certificates ensure a secure connection from your domain to your website.

🌵Fun Fact: Cactus can perform photosynthesis at night, unlike most plants, which only do so during the day.
