Shorten Link

It is self-hosted service for shortening link.

Motivation

Why self-hosted?

Self-hosted can get rid of the registration step so that we can also avoid the alias conflicting with those of other users.

How to avoid attacks without registration?

I used a very simple symmetric encryption to protect critical operations (i.e., just a string, lol).

Any more?

I don't need the tracking feature that most out-of-the-shelf services provide.
