IMPORTANT: This app heavily requires an actual root domain (not the ones provided by netlify or vercel or GCP). This is due to requirement of subdomain (for ex: deprov447.getfront.space). Now I don't have both time, and money to maintain a actual domain, so just for local usage, we are going to use localhost as root domain.

Front space is a platform to quickly create single paged websites and host it for the world to see.
