The library's official documentation can be found here. The project GitHub can be found here.

Example use cases

Say for instance you own the domain mywebsite.com and as a part your web project design, you want to serve specific content at <sub-domain-1>.mywebsite.com & <sub-domain-2>.mywebsite.com.

This allows your web project to use domains like:

help.mywebsite.com

mobile.mywebsite.com

Your project can also use "user specific sub-domains" such as:

zeke.mywebsite.com

elizabeth.mywebsite.com

These techniques can give a web project better looking and more organized path structure.
