This is a self-hosted URL shortening service built in Go with Redis. It lets a user shorten a long URL, set an expiry date, choose a custom alias, and tag links for organization, and it exposes an API so shortening can be integrated into another application. Rate limiting is built in to prevent abuse. It is aimed at developers who want to self-host link shortening with more link-management options than a bare-bones tool.
