Why isroot.in?

isroot.in exists to remove friction and cost from getting online. Whether you are a student, hobbyist, or part of an organization, you can register a free managed subdomain and focus on building.

Built with

• Next.js (site and dashboard)
• JAMstack-friendly tooling and modern hosting
• GitHub OAuth for authentication
• hCaptcha / Turnstile for bot protection

DNS & Nameservers

• Nameservers are located in Hyderabad.
  • Primary: ns1.nevercode.in (Hyderabad)
  • Secondary: ns2.nevercode.in (Hyderabad)

Note: If you manage DNS externally (Cloudflare, etc.), point your domain's nameservers to your DNS provider as instructed in the dashboard.

Free for Developers

isroot.in offers free subdomains for developers. By default, accounts can register up to 5 subdomains. These subdomains are intended for development, learning, and small projects.

Get started 🚀

1. Sign in with GitHub at https://isroot.in.
2. Open Register Domain and choose a subdomain (e.g., yourname.isroot.in).
3. Use DNS → Manage DNS in the dashboard to add A, CNAME, TXT, or other records.

Frontend source

This repository includes the Next.js pages and components for isroot.in, including landing, login, registration, WHOIS, dashboard, and the complete /docs section (privacy, terms, and usage policy). The existing Markdown documentation in docs/ and its VitePress configuration are retained.

Local development

Use Node.js 22 LTS or newer, then run:

npm ci
cp .env.example .env.local
npm run dev

Set NEXT_PUBLIC_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY to a public site key configured for your local host if you need to render the CAPTCHA widget. Never add secret keys or database credentials. Open http://localhost:3000 for the Next.js frontend.

The frontend retains its real same-origin /api/* requests. Backend handlers are maintained privately and are not included. This repository contains no mock data. API-dependent features (including login, dashboard data, WHOIS, and domain search) require the private backend and will not work in a standalone local checkout.

npm run typecheck
npm run build
npm run docs:dev
npm run docs:build

The docs:* scripts run the existing VitePress documentation separately. Production deployment remains in the private application repository.
