We should have a doc page that explains the context of apps that require a domain and give info about domain usage. There should be a link to this doc page shown on the "set domain" inithook on all apps that require a domain be set.
The TL;DR of the doc page should cover:
- note that some apps require domain and simple explanation of why
- server MUST have either a static IP or domain updated via dynamic DNS
- chosen domain name MUST point to server
- ideal: A or CNAME DNS record pointing to server static IP
- a local DNS server (e.g. router, dnsmasq, pihole, etc) is an option (will only resolve for users using local DNS)
- workaround: HubDNS - static IP not required although suggested for production (testing or production)
- workaround: edit local hosts (testing only)
- workaround: use IP as "domain" static IP required (testing only)
