Custom domain, what to buy?
Given how Railways works, I assume I need to buy ONLY the domain (no hosting). Once I buy the domain, I configure the DNS to point towards myApp.up.railway.app, right?
If so, will my links go from looking like this:
myApp.up.railway.app/page/332
to this:
my-domain.com/page/332
Do I understand this correctly?

N/AYes, you understand this correctly. Once you buy the domain and configure the DNS to point towards yourApp.up.railway.app, your links will go from looking like myApp.up.railway.app/page/332 to my-domain.com/page/332.

What an impressive bot, like damn.
Is this normal?
did you make the cname record?
I'm at checkdomain.com and the only fields I have are these:
I didn't create a CNAME record. Do I do that at my domain provider?
Is this where I should add CNAME?
got it like this now
I think now I did.
Using HTTPS causes a timeout, but HTTP redirects to yawa.up.railway.app (and the address stays at yawa.up). Do i just need to wait for things to catch up?
Alright, I got the first one to work (what was missing was www.).
Now I'd like to also redirect from my domain without the www.
Is this how I should configure my DNS?
Is it possible that my domain provider just doesn't support redirecting from an address without www ?
