    How can I get a Cloudron app to receive requests without adding an alias?

    For example, I would like to setup cname.myapp.cloudron.domain and allow users of the app to point their domains there (i.e. a user can make a CNAME record for sub.theirsite.com to cname.myapp.cloudron.domain).

    In some way I'm asking an old question but instead of static files I want to deploy a node.js app that responds dynamically.

      The Cloudron Nginx would have to be made aware of the user subdomains.

        Technically, how will cloudron serve up a secure site without even knowing a domain? It won't have the certificate for this unknown dynamic domain.

          True. I think I'm trying to emulate how PaaS platforms let you add a domain with https, but doing it at the app level instead of the platform (cloudron) level. I was thinking yesterday maybe the Cloudron API can add them and provision certificates behind the scenes.
