Description

Workplace has changed domain from companyname.facebook.com to companyname.workplace.com. So far the change has to be approved by an admin, but later it will happen for everybody I think.

After this change I can no longer login, I just get redirected to companyname.workplace.com/chat in Chrome. I'm guessing it's because the domain is hardcoded in some places (index file for example). Let me know if you need more info to fix this issue.

Research direction
Search the codebase for hardcoded occurrences of 'facebook.com' or 'companyname.facebook.com' that should be updated to 'workplace.com' or made configurable. Look in files like index.ts, config files, or any URL related constants. Check if there are any environment variables for domain configuration. The issue reporter mentions that the domain is hardcoded in the index file, so start there. Also review the 2 existing comments for any additional clues.
