- **Instant WHOIS & Domain Registrar Lookup Tool** (https://codeways.co/whois): Free live ZARC (`.co.za`, `.org.za`, `.net.za`, `.web.za`, `.joburg`, `.capetown`, `.durban`) and ICANN (`.com`, `.co`, `.org`, `.net`, `.io`, `.ai`, `.co.uk`) WHOIS checker. Clearly highlights **where a domain is registered (Registrar Name, Website, Abuse Email & Phone)**, separates Registrar billing from active DNS/Nameserver hosting (e.g. Cloudflare, xneelo, Afrihost, Domains.co.za), and displays creation/expiry dates, EPP transfer lock status (`clientTransferProhibited`), live `A`/`MX` records, and raw registry output. Public JSON API: `GET https://codeways.co/api/whois?domain={domain}` | Markdown API: `GET https://codeways.co/whois?domain={domain}&format=markdown`.
