how to make user able to connect custom domain to our service? (eg shopify, medium, wordpress)
Question
Using React for our Shopify-like service. basically the same functionality.
Where i am stuck is how do i Make user able to connect their domain to our websites specific domain or subdomain.
eg.
User owned domain
uniquedomain.com
Service domain
user.myservice.com
from shopify
shopify allows user to add their domain to their shop. how does this work?
conclusion
If user wants to add their domain to our specific url,
what tech should i be adopting for this feature?
currently using React, react-subdomain
react subdomain

This can be done using CNAME records or giving your users the IP address of your server to add in there DNS records.
How shopify does this -
Shopify gives the IP addresses of there load balancer to the users who wants to connect to their domain to the shopify shop.
The end user (domain owner) need to point there domain to the given Ip address, and you will have to have the virtual host setup at your end to recognise each domain.
