Features ✨

😍 URL shortning made simple: mnmlurl uses jsonstore.io to store data on an endpoint JSON file using HTTPS requests. It works on any url.

❀️ No server side logging: Your privacy is important for us. We never log, collect or prompt to sell your data to anyone.

πŸ”₯ Custom and random alias support: Add your own custom alias or generate a random one.

πŸ”’ Generate QR code: Create and download shortened URL's QR code.

βš—οΈ Manage URLs: Delete already created alias to update/create new URLs.

⚑ Performance: mnmlurl is a thin web app on top of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Being a Progressive web app, mnmlurl offers lightning fast loading and offline support via workbox and service worker.

πŸ’ Browser extension: Get mnmlurl Chrome browser extension

Minimal URL can be hosted on any website hosting services like GitHub/GitLab pages, Firebase/Heroku hosting, yoursite.com, etc. For hosting in such custom domains, Its advised to npm run-scripts build and upload output folder. Hosting on GitHub pages was just for proof of concept.

IMPORTANT: Minimal URL is an experimental project. Don't shorten sensitive contents/URLs with it. jsonstore.io endpoints are always public making shortened URLs visible for everyone.
