CLI tool that makes managing Netlify subdomains as simple as typing a command. No more clicking through the web UI!
npm install -g netlify-subdomain
netlify-subdomain add blog # Creates blog.yourdomain.com instantly!
Why I built this:
Needed to create subdomains frequently for various projects. The Netlify web UI requires multiple clicks and page loads. This tool reduces that to a single command.
Features:
✔️ Add/remove subdomains from CLI
✔️ Site aliases for quick access
✔️ Works with any Netlify DNS-managed domain
✔️ Zero configuration after initial setup
