Leaflet alpha - custom domains
Our latest Leaflet feature's a fun one — custom domains!
You can link a Leaflet to any domain you own — root (e.g. web.site
) or subdomain (e.g. my.web.site
) — and can optionally add a path (e.g. web.site/page
)
Add a domain from share settings to try it now! Note that it may show as pending for a bit while DNS propagates.
Examples we're playing with:
Celine's making some for her projects, with different Leaflets as different paths — like favorite recipes at cozylittle.house/recipes and baking experiments at cozylittle.house/baking
I (Brendan) added one as a nice public shortcut for this syllabus collection I made: syllabus.zone
And I’m adding docs on subdomains of schlage.town (also my Bluesky handle!) starting with a list of my public Leaflets at docs.schlage.town
Lots of use cases we're excited about:
cool domains for project microsites
shortcuts for public resources like a reading list or syllabus
shortcuts for your own personal most-used docs
simple homepage or link-in-bio site
listings page for an event series
A little more fine print on how it works:
You need a Leaflet account to add custom domains
Subpages don’t get their own separate paths
This customizes just the publish link, not the edit link
Hope you have fun with this — and please hit us up with any questions :)
