CoreDNS is a fast, flexible DNS server that is designed to be performant with a flexible implementation. This flexibility allows CoreDNS to be easily extended to support various data sources and to implement rich DNS service behaviors. For example, response caching, query rewrite, load-balancing, zone transfer and signing. CoreDNS is a fast, flexible DNS server that is designed to be performant with a flexible implementation.

established. The current rule is: the master branch is production ready at all times. A more formal release
process is on its way, the choice to use semver versioning has not yet been made. Precompiled binaries will be
created by hooking into Caddy's website: https://caddyservers.com where "DNS" will be a download option.

*Existing community*: The community is small, but growing. Current number of twitter following is 100+ (after a
week of having the twitter account). By aligning ourselves with the Caddy community we hope to leverage Caddy's
popularity for CoreDNS. By positioning CoreDNS as a better SkyDNS we hope to entice user of SkyDNS to embrace
CoreDNS.
