A friend of mine reached out to me last week with an idea he had for a website building platform kind of like Wix, but more simple.
Is this achievable with Laravel? Primarily, I am concerned about custom domains. Obviously, we would need to let users add custom domains for their websites, and I am thinking about the ease of doing that with Laravel.
@cwray-tech you can definitely do it. the question is why?
Commercially I think Wix has the budget site market stitched up. You'd have have something really compelling to want to build something that competes with any website building platform.
@automica for sure! I agree. He wants to target his primary market specifically and make it really easy for them to create and manage their own sites.
Do you have anything to add regarding the question of custom domains?
@cwray-tech you'd be looking to so subdomain routing
see the following: https://joelennon.com/dynamic-custom-domain-routing-in-laravel
which should give you an idea of how to proceed.
