Great, simple to use website.

Just one UI suggestion - in a bright room, I had to spend a few moments to figure out where to type as the borders around the text box was very faint and nearly invisible till I clicked on it. Either make the text border brighter or better still, why not place the cursor in the text box by default on page load so that txt box is highlighted by default?

(Using firefox 115.7 esr on Win 11).

Thanks for the suggestion. I've added the auto-focus and thickened the borders to help with this.
Here's another one:

- Show response status. For example, when you lookup a non-existent domain, you say "No records returned", but that's not accurate. You should show NXDOMAIN so that it's clear the domain doesn't exist. You may get NOERROR and no records.

Did a bunch of refactoring to show status and potentially show the zone output in future maybe.
