An open-source interface to keep your independence on the web.

Does this sound familiar?

Self-hosted, except DNS
Your mail, your cloud, your git are on your own servers. But your DNS still lives in a closed registrar console you don’t control.
One typo from disaster
Raw zone files are unforgiving. A missing dot, a wrong TTL, and your mail silently vanishes for hours before you notice.
Locked into a provider
Each registrar’s interface decides what you can do and how. Moving your zones elsewhere means relearning everything.

A simple and clear interface, whatever the host.


Whether your zones live at a registrar or on your own servers, happyDomain displays them the same clear way, limiting errors.

Install happyDomain next to your Bind or PowerDNS and enjoy the interface without changing your configuration. (coming soon)

app.happydomain.org/domains/example.com
A zone displayed in a clear, human-readable way
app.happydomain.org/providers
List of supported providers, from cloud services to self-hosted servers

Self-hosting made easy, even for DNS.


With the same interface, manage your zone at a third-party provider or run your own DNS servers. Your domains, your rules.

Don’t be afraid of editing a zone text file: we take care of it.

happyDomain is open source, needs very few resources, runs happily on a Raspberry Pi, and can even be launched only when needed.

Tinker without fear: preview, history, rollback.


Before any change is published, happyDomain shows you exactly what will be modified and asks for confirmation. No more silent typos.

And since every version of your zone is kept in history, you can experiment freely and roll back in one click if something goes wrong.

app.happydomain.org/domains/example.com/diff
Review and confirm the changes that will be applied
app.happydomain.org/domains/example.com/services
Services attached to a domain, described in plain words

Set up any service in all simplicity.


A new service? An urgent fix? happyDomain uses simple terminology to stay focused on the expected result.

We are committed to providing the latest in DNS registration and services, so your setup never lags behind the standards.

Manage easily, even special zones. (coming soon)


Looking for an interface that displays reverse IPv4/IPv6 zones in a human way? Or a Real-time Blackhole List (DNSBL) zone? Or DNS Response Policy Zones (DNS-RPZ)?

happyDomain understands them and lets you manage them unequivocally.
