Writing a DNS Server in Rust

Docker Hub

Normally, I prefer to use GitLab and their CI system, but for this project we are using GitHub. What we want to achieve is that this project be compiled, the Docker container created and pushed to the Docker Hub automatically on every push. We can do this with GitHub Actions.

I went ahead and purchased the domain dnsfun.dev from my registrar for 19.99€, and I purchased a VPS from my cloud provider for about 4.50€ per month. I then logged in to that VPS and ran something like this:.

DEV.to

DNS is the protocol that is used to answer questions like What's the IP address of google.com? Usually, when you open a website in your browser, you use domain names. In https://dev.to, the dev.to is a domain name. Other domain names you might know are youtube.com or lobste.rs. But in order for your browser (or any software on your computer, for that matter) to establish a connection, it needs to know which IP address to talk to. An IP address is something like 172.217.16.206: basically just a few numbers that are enough to send your request to the right place. Very similar to a phone number or a physical address. Using the DNS protocol, your browser sends a request to get the IP addresses for some domain name, and then it gets a response with the answers.
