Add a custom domain to your streamlit web app

Qiusheng Wu — Wed, 20 Oct 2021 13:55:01 GMT

Streamlit does not yet support custom domains. Here is a workaround: iframing your app into index.html and put it in your repo, then create a gh-pages branch and add your custom domain to GitHub pages. Check out my app with a custom domain 👇
