What's a zone file?

There are many examples scattered across the internet. Here's one:

$ORIGIN flowers.horse.
@                      3600 SOA   ns1.p30.dynect.net. (
                              zone-admin.dyndns.com.     ; address of responsible party
                              2016072701                 ; serial number
                              3600                       ; refresh period
                              600                        ; retry period
                              604800                     ; expire time
                              1800                     ) ; minimum ttl

This app expects you to upload a .txt file, so if your zone file doesn't have an extension, you'll need to add .txt to the end.

What about my SOA record?

Netlify doesn't support creating SOA records, so the app won't show you an SOA record even if it was in the zone file.

What about this [silent failure, weird UI thing, unhandled case]?

There are many! This is a work in progress. Please file an issue and I'll take a look :)
