Tldx – CLI tool for fast domain name discovery 1 year ago
I switched out whois with RDAP as the primary.
It now goes RDAP -> DNS check -> whois.
Much faster, too. Thank you again for this!

I'd assume so? Usernames on HN and GitHub match?
Yeah! Excited to have a short circuit.
Good advice!
DNS check -> RDAP seems to be the right way to take this.
This is good to know! I'll migrate this over to RDAP
Could you try: https://github.com/brandonyoungdev/tldx/issues/10
I agree. That's why I love using a permutation tool like this. It has had some surprising finds so far.
Though it's still a cope for the real problem of domain squatting.
Good eye.
Fixed now :)
Yep! There's supposed to be two examples there... Fixed now :)
I wonder if it'll be good to go from a line-by-line print to an actual TUI. That'd make sorting + dynamically inserting new domains make sense
good suggestion
Currently, it just streams out whichever whois servers respond first. Sorting is a good improvement!
I'm wanting to add something like this.
Besides length, what would you think would be a good way to sort suggestions here?
I’m always building small tools for myself that end up buried in private repos. I figured it was time to start sharing a few that others might find useful.
Just published tldx, a CLI tool I use to quickly check if a domain name is available across a bunch of TLDs and variations.
Hopefully, some of you CLI enthusiasts can find it useful!
