vise

Lightweight, self-hosted PHP URL shortener with a simple admin page for creating links.

Webfree

vise is a lightweight, self-hosted URL shortener written in PHP, deployable on a standard Apache server with mod_rewrite. Shortened links are stored in a plain text file rather than a database, and an access-code-protected admin page is used to create and manage them. It's built for developers who want a minimal shortener without setting up a database server, and is used in production for the menteb.in website.
