Custom Domains Support Upgrade

Hey 👋

A new release was shipped with two sweet improvements to the Console.

🌐 Custom Domains New API​

The hosting features for registering or administrating custom domains have been migrated to the API from the DFINITY Boundary Nodes team.

This migration makes managing domains:

  • More reliable
  • Significantly faster
  • Future-proof

Massive kudos to the team delivering this capability - awesome work 💪

✨ UI Improvements​

Alongside the domain upgrade, we shipped a few visual refinements:

Stronger contrast on cards and buttons for a cleaner, more readable interface (amazing what you can achieve by nudging brightness 😄)

The Launchpad has been slightly redesigned: "Create a new satellite" is now a primary button, bringing more clarity and guidance.

A screenshot of the new Console UI with navigation on the Datastore page

I tagged a new release as I deployed a new version of the Console UI to mainnet.

Aside from the updated navigation, which now displays the page title within breadcrumb-style navigation, and a few minor fixes, not much has changed feature-wise.

The biggest change in the frontend's codebase, which explains why so many files were touched, is a refactor to adopt the new pattern I’ve been using for DID declarations.

Instead of relying on auto-imported separate types, I now prefer grouping factories in a single module, exporting them from there, and importing the types through a suffixed module DID alias.

You can check out the pattern in Juno's frontend codebase or in the ic-client JS library. If you're curious about it, let me know.

It’s a small structural shift that makes the code much cleaner and more readable.

Finally, there are a few new E2E tests added in this repo and in the CLI.

To infinity and beyond 🍞✨
