Great article @lauracharvey
. There are so many great hosting platforms these days that make it so easy to get started with your own presence on the web. I have used Netlify, vercel, github pages, heroku, and digital ocean. They are all great.
It's really important to get in a rhythm of deploying things and have a good grasp of the full process early on as you are learning. It helps to form good habits about how you structure your projects.
Now that you have lauracharvey.dev/ you can deploy anything you want for free on a subdomain.

Once you have your dns settings already configured with a hosting provider, adding sub-domains is super simple. I think netlify might even take care of all of it for you. I was looking at the last couple that I did and don't see any records on my dns provider.
Otherwise if your hosting provider does not take care of it automatically you can set up a CNAME with your registrar.

Here is one that I had setup for myself.
👆 this one sets up default-kedro-157.waylonwalker.com/
Especially with the simplicity of deploying to netlify you can go bananas releasing toy projects almost as easy as a code pen, and have a nice url.
