A live infrastructure experiment
Brendan + Instinct set this up.
This small site exists to make the custom-domain customer journey tangible: choose a hostname, prove control, route traffic, issue a certificate, and verify the result.
HTTPS connected
02 · DNS
Route
A CNAME maps the friendly hostname to the provider. The authoritative DNS service publishes it.

03 · CONTROL
Verify
The platform checks DNS to prove the customer controls the hostname and to prevent domain hijacking.
status: active
04 · TLS
Secure
The platform requests and renews a publicly trusted certificate, then serves the site over HTTPS.
