URL shortener

TL;DR

I have many URLs that are long, especially for blog slugs. I have many domain names, some of which are short. I built a URL shortener with an admin panel to add urls and do basic analytics.

Problem

Some of my links are too long to remember easily. I didn't want to use a SaaS url shortener as their links often look like spam.

Idea

A URL shortener that's fast, no frills, and can use one of the shorter domain names I own.
