Ask HN: What are you using .dev domain for?

2 pointsraviojha3 comments

It's been marketed as the tld for devs to use it as a personal web domain.

Do you use it for any other purpose?

For development

How do you mean?

Before it became a TLD, .dev was commonly used as an extension in /etc/hosts to point a fake domain to localhost during development.

These days I use .localhost for that.
