TODO:
1. Automate registering the domain
2. Automate setting up the DNS
3. Better automate deploying to Netlify (Claude kind of choked on this one)
I also used my trick of immediately changing the Namechep NS records to AWS Route 53, to avoid getting a parking page and having to wait for an hour TTL to expire.
The most frustrating part was waiting for Netlify to figure out the Let's Encrypt cert. It takes ages and I have to manually recheck. Fix this Netlify! (If anyone from Netlify is reading this, it seems like I click "veryify DNS" it says "Success!" but if I reload the page it asks me to verify again).
Time spent: ~30 minutes
Total cost:
- Claude: $0.56
- Domain: 12 bucks of course ;)
- Hosting (Netlify): $0.00
