Cloudflare

Acquiring domain​

You can buy a domain in various places like Cloudflare, GoDaddy, Namecheap etc. In this guide we'll be using Cloudflare and in this version this is the only supported way of getting a domain and using it.

If you have a domain outside Cloudflare, you can either migrate it, or wait for support of different providers.

The reason why Cloudflare is our first choice is that it gives us a look of tools and security out of the box, even if you're on Free tier. It has a huge community and a lot of tools already integrated.
