Cookies: Setting a cookie domain

Hey, make sure you join my 🥾 ⛺ BOOTCAMP waiting list, next cohort in March/April/May 2025

The domain can be used to specify a subdomain for your cookie.

document.cookie = 'name=Flavio; domain=mysite.com;'

If not set, it defaults to the host portion even if using a subdomain (if on subdomain.mydomain.com, by default it’s set to mydomain.com). Domain cookies are included in subdomains.
