About

TLD Observer allows you to subscribe to email notifications for new top-level domains. Users can choose to be notified of newly-released TLDs, soon-to-be-released TLDs, or both.

It comprises 4 main components:

  • 👷  A cronjob-based worker process to detect new TLDs and save data about them
  • 🚀  A static website generator that will publish new website versions when new TLD data is saved
  • 👩‍💻  A public API allowing users to register to get email notifications
  • 📬  An email delivery service to send notifications based on both user and TLD data

Logo

 

The eye logo will move according to your cursor when you visit TLD Observer on a computer. Pretty cool right?

 

Ellipse diagram

 

In order to have a realistic pupil position no matter where your cursor is located, a math equation is repeatedly solved as you move your cursor around: We find the intersection of the line that goes through both your cursor position and the center of the eye and of an arbitrary ellipse defining the boundaries of the pupil. 🤓
