Hi guys,
Is necessary to have a domain name right away when I’m creating the droplet? Isn’t it possible to access my Django apps using the ipadress in the url instead of a domain name?
I’m still in a development stage and don’t have a domain name defined yet.
Thanks and Regards, João

No, you don’t need a domain name – you can access your apps using the IP address.
Thanks. Already created a droplet and I’m accessing it using only the IP Adress.
