Guides

Each guide walks through pointing an OpenRepos subdomain at a hosting provider: claim the subdomain, configure it at the provider, then verify HTTPS.

GitHub Pages

Add your subdomain in Settings → Pages, then enable Enforce HTTPS.

Cloudflare Pages

Attach the domain to your Pages project — the 522 goes away once it is active.

Vercel

Assign the domain in project settings; Vercel issues the certificate automatically.

Netlify

Add the domain under Domain management and provision HTTPS.

GitLab Pages

GitLab requires a verification TXT record — the claim creates it for you.

How claiming works

  1. Pick a domain and subdomain on the homepage picker.
  2. Edit register.json and add the badge to your project README.
  3. Open a pull request — CI validates ownership, the target and the badge.
  4. After a maintainer merges, DNS is provisioned automatically.
  5. Configure the custom domain at your provider with the matching guide.

Not sure which domain?

All seven domains point at the same service; the picker lists what is available. See what a free subdomain is, or how OpenRepos compares with other free subdomain services.
