TinyTiny is an open source URL-shortener app. Deployed on a server with a domain name, users can paste URL links (like "www.google.com
") in the web interface and get a generated "shortened" route (like "yourdomain.com/u4F
"), which will redirect requests to the original link (much like bit.ly or tinyurl.com). Anyone can navigate to these shortened links, which will redirect them to the original URL automatically.
$ git clone https://github.com/nickpalencharOpen/tinytiny.git
$ cd tinytiny
$ npm i
$ mkdir secrets
$ touch secrets/development.js # add secret variables (see setup in CONTRIBUTING)
$ npm start
Feel free to deploy this for public, private, commercial and non-commercial use! You can edit variables in config
to customize the app without modifying the code (modifying the code is of course welcomed as well--please contact me to share what you've added!). See /config/readme.md for info on how to customize via the config directory.
