A lightweight universal dynamic DNS (DDNS) updater that periodically keeps DNS A/AAAA records updated across many DNS providers, with a built-in WebUI. It is distributed as a Docker image and zero-dependency binaries for Linux, Windows, and macOS.
Use cases
- keep my home IP synced to cloudflare dns
- update duckdns record automatically
- dynamic dns client for namecheap
- self-hosted ddns updater with web ui
- update AAAA records for ipv6 at home
- run ddns updater in docker on my nas
When to choose
- you need one tool supporting many DNS providers (Cloudflare, DuckDNS, Namecheap, GoDaddy, No-IP, etc.)
- you want a containerized or single-binary DDNS client with a WebUI
- you need both IPv4 (A) and IPv6 (AAAA) record updates
When to avoid
- your router or NAS already has a built-in DDNS client for your provider
- you need full DNS zone management rather than periodic record updates
- you want a GUI desktop application rather than a service/container
