Overview
A domain name you attach to a deployed application.
Definition
A domain name you attach to a deployed application.
Real-world example
Create an A record for app.example.com → 203.0.113.10, add the domain in Better-PaaS, wait for DNS propagation, then confirm HTTPS is active.
Common mistake
Adding the domain in the dashboard before DNS points at the server, causing repeated Let's Encrypt failures.
Better-PaaS in practice
Domains are per-app in the dashboard. Caddy obtains certificates once DNS resolves to your server and the app is healthy.
FAQ
Is custom domain only relevant to Better-PaaS?
No. custom domain appears across Docker, cloud platforms, and self-hosted tooling. Better-PaaS exposes the concept in deploy logs, dashboard fields, or docs when it affects your app.
