<div class="docs-content">
<p class="docs-lead">Every Bulkhead OS site can be mapped to your own custom domain. Set up your domain in Workspace Settings and update your DNS to point to Bulkhead OS.</p>

<h2 id="setup">Setting Up Your Domain</h2>
<ol>
<li>Go to <strong>Workspace Settings → Domain</strong></li>
<li>Enter your custom domain (e.g., <code>docs.yourbrand.com</code>)</li>
<li>Follow the DNS instructions shown — you'll need to add a CNAME or AAAA record at your DNS provider</li>
<li>Save the settings</li>
</ol>
<p>SSL certificates are provisioned automatically. Your site will be accessible on your custom domain within minutes.</p>

<h2 id="dns-records">DNS Configuration</h2>
<p>At your DNS provider (Cloudflare, Namecheap, Google Domains, etc.), create one of these records:</p>
<table>
<thead><tr><th>Type</th><th>Name</th><th>Value</th><th>Notes</th></tr></thead>
<tbody>
<tr><td><code>CNAME</code></td><td>Your subdomain</td><td><code>edge.bulkheados.com</code></td><td>For subdomains (docs.yourbrand.com)</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>AAAA</code></td><td><code>@</code></td><td><code>100::</code></td><td>For apex domains (yourbrand.com)</td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>

<div class="docs-callout docs-callout--info">
<p><strong>Cloudflare users:</strong> If your domain is already on Cloudflare, enable the proxy (orange cloud) for automatic SSL and edge caching.</p>
</div>

<h2 id="ssl">SSL & Security</h2>
<p>All custom domains get automatic SSL/TLS certificates. No manual certificate management required. Your site is always served over HTTPS.</p>

<h2 id="aliases">Domain Aliases</h2>
<p>Need multiple domains pointing to the same site? Add additional domains as aliases in Domain Settings. Alias domains automatically redirect to your primary domain with a 301, preserving SEO value.</p>
