Replace SUBDOMAIN_NAME with the name of the sub-domain. So if the name was hello then the subdomain would be hello.hackclub.com.
Replace SOURCE_DOMAIN_OR_IP with the domain or IP address of the website you want the subdomain to go. If you are using an IP address change type: CNAME to type: A. Remember to leave that . at the end!
That's it! Someone with contributor access to the repo will then review your PR.

Replacing a CNAME record with another record type
The CNAME record cannot coexist with other record types, which may require you to change to an ALIAS or A record type if you need additional DNS records on your subdomain. Due to a bug in OctoDNS, removing a CNAME may result in deploying your changes breaking. You might encounter this when trying to use both Vercel and email/Google Workspace on the same subdomain.
To fix this, follow these steps, each in a seperate PR:
Make a PR that deletes all records on your subdomain (ex: #1642).
Make another PR that adds the additional records needed, replacing the CNAME with the other record that you want (oftentimes ALIAS) (ex: #1643).
Make it clear to the person reviewing your PRs that the first PR must be merged before the second one.
Limitations
Subdomains, under domains following the format hackclub.xxx(or other domains reffering to hackclub), are only available for official Hack Club projects, not including HCB (fiscally sponsored) projects. Everyone is welcome to use dino.icu!
When adding a site hosted on ▲ Vercel, you will need to verifiy the domain by adding a TXT record.
