DNS management. Think something like InfoBlox where I can have GUI driven control from simple adding a new zone record all the way up to full anycast configuration.

I love the terminal and CLIs to death but zone files suck and setting up bind or unbound/nsd is more painful than it should be.

I have a decent web UI based DNS (and other stuff) management if you'd like to give it a try.

I'm running Netbox as the main tool Coupled with the DNS plugin With a cron job running OctoDNS with octodns-netbox as data source, and zone transfer to my local Unbound server for resolution and cloudflare for public DNS.

It was a bit of work to setup but I didn't have any issues with it so far.
