Anyone using CoAlias to provide multiple domains to their project? Curious how well this works? Any issues experienced from the user end?
I working a project with a customer to offer a white label version of my app on their domain. Trying to avoid having multiple projects to update/support.
Our client needed multiple environments (staging, demo, prod) with custom domains. Even the staging domain that WeWeb offers doesn’t have a custom domain, so we used CoAlias.
We have been using it for a couple of months. And haven’t faced any issues.
Hey Eric,
You said 'white label" because you do no want them to see “WeWeb”, is that why? I’m looking for something similar for a specific use-case.
No, I have a company that wants to use my app for one of their service offerings and want it to look like an internal tool. Their branding, not mine. (It’s a B2B app)
I tested Coalias and it did seem to work well. I can dynamically switch branding based on what the browser URL shows, so it makes it easy to white label the app.
Couldn’t you have duplicated the WeWeb project and hooked it up to their domain?
Pro: make modifications that only apply to that company, especially styling.
Con: maintain a separate project
I didn’t want to have to maintain two instances when I could simply bind the homepage, header, and footer styling using the Browser->Domain context variables. Very simple.
Makes sense. You make a fair point regarding the binding based on domain. Pretty simple.
