I would like to purchase a domain, say fireworks.com, and a VPS.
Supposing that I want to call my machine ubuntu-1804, I wonder how my etc/hosts file should be edited, as follows:
127.0.0.1 localhost
203.0.113.10 fireworks.com ubuntu-1804
Or as follows:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
203.0.113.10 ubuntu-1804.fireworks.com ubuntu-1804
Also, Linode's documentation suggests to create an “A” record in DNS pointing to my VPS IPv4 address, and an "AAAA" record pointing to my VPS IPv6 address. Should I add these records for fireworks.com or for ubuntu-1804.fireworks.com?

If you also want fireworks.com locally to resolve to the same address use the first. The DNS issue is separate.
