The site content is a pure client-side javascript web application that counts and extracts in-text citations from essays.

👋 Please could you explain how this is related directly to the JavaScript ecosystem/community? Why is this something a JavaScript developer specifically would use more-so than anyone else?

Your PR should only be editing cnames_active.js. A CNAME file is used for GitHub Pages projects and should not be included here.

Thank you for considering my request for a js.org domain for my project, citecount.netlify.app, and I'd like to explain how CiteCount aligns with the JavaScript ecosystem and community.

CiteCount is a pure client-side JavaScript web application designed to count and extract in-text citations from essays. Built entirely with JavaScript, it runs in the browser without any server side dependencies, making it a natural fit within the JavaScript ecosystem.

I believe its value to the community is the fact that this is an open source project that's built entirely with JavaScript, showcasing JavaScript’s abilities, such as the use of regex, string manipulation, and its ability to build features such as AutoSave, read PDF/Word files etc without backend support.

I have deleted CNAME from this pull request.

Thank you again for your time and consideration!

Most websites are built using JavaScript, it is the language of the web. I'm not sure that your explanation tells me what specifically about this site makes it something JavaScript developers would use more than anyone else. @indus thoughts?

@DevChrisChan If you could make the main functionality more accessible to devs (as a library, or at least by linking to the source) I think this would be in line with our understanding of "JS related". If thats not an option I share the opinion that is build with JS but not very related to JS.

Hello! Just to confirm, does linking to the source mean to provide a direct link to the repo on Github? If so, in the newer instance on the app there has already been a button (link), and the source code will be commented thoroughly to explain the functions. I sincerely hope you can consider the request, and let me know if there are anything else to modify! Thank you!

LGTM 👍

I've just added your requested subdomain to JS.ORGs zonefile. You may have to configure your host to accept the custom domain.
I'll merge after we have "contact". Please keep this PR open.

I have accepted the domain on my end and it is now live on cite.js.org! Thank you very much! The mentioned version of the app with the Github repo linked will be live when the rewrite is complete.
