proper way for setting up domains and subdomains

Hi,

So , I want the following:

For the Appwrite admin panel, I want to use: admin.example.com

For my backend APIs, I want to use: api.example.com

For my frontend (web app), I want to use example.com

I am using a self hosted version. However, it is not very clear to me how to set this exact setup.

When I create Appwrite instance using docker, should I give my hostname as admin.example.com ?

And then, how do I setup domains for backend and frontend? Will this setup cause any problems?

your setup should work fine.

1. hostname as admin.example.com > appwrite console
2. other subdomains > you should correctly manage this via pointing A records to your Server IP.

This is where I am confused. How should I set up My DNS

Should I do this?

A record for admin.example.com should point to my public IP of the instance.

But then, how should I setup the A record or Cname record or whatever to ensure that the backend requests go to api.example.com ?
