DNSControl (Coming Soon!)

Introduction

DNSControl is a domain-specific language (DSL) created by the Stack Overflow team for DNS-as-Code management. It offers a streamlined approach to managing DNS configurations across a variety of DNS hosts, whether they are in the cloud or part of your own infrastructure. This tool is the backbone of domain management for the entire Stack Overflow network and can bring the same efficiency and reliability to your domain management.

You can find an introductory video on YouTube that explains the reasons behind the Stack Exchange team's development of DNSControl and its potential benefits for you. It’s definitely worth watching!

Provider Plugins

DNSControl comes equipped with a range of provider plugins, meaning you won’t need additional downloads. These plugins allow you to integrate various DNS providers seamlessly into your workflow. The configuration file syntax of DNSControl is based on JavaScript principles, which makes it accessible and easy to learn for both beginners and experienced users.
