I have a domain name from hostinger , but to add a CNAME record , I need the target IP. that's what I think it is. which IP should I provide hostinger ?

Also , how do i maange my local ENV variables in pythonanywhere ?

CNAME records don't require IP addresses, so perhaps you're looking at the wrong part of Hostinger's interface -- the section for A records? This looks like the appropriate help page on their site.

Regarding environment variables, check out this help page.

Thanks , I am sure I would need further help.

Let us know if you come across any issues

is it okay to host vulnerable flask applications here , for a ctf ?

Sure, that would be fine -- we may have to shut it down if it causes system-wide issues (eg. someone tries to DDoS it instead of hack it) but otherwise, it's OK.

there might be some minimal fuzzing , but other than that , We'll make sure that no one DDoS it. the protocol can be set to HTTP right ?

Yes you can turn on/off forcing https on the web app page

since CTFD uses flask , i can use pythonanywhere to host our own ctfd instance with the database from pythonaywhere right ?

That should probably work.
