This site (printi.me) will only serve a 404 error page, which actually contains the printi home page! This way, every printi.me/subdomain works. The advantages of serving the site this way are:
- ⚡ take advantage of the high-performance github.io server (which is free!);
- 💆 reduce demand on the API server;
- 🚀 allow for a faster deployment cycle.
The printer name is retrieved from the URL using javascript (document.location.pathname), and image uploads are sent to api.printi.me, the API server hosted on a different domain.
Open 404.html to get started!
