Quickly shorten URLs with go.a04.dev Self-Hosted URL Shortener Extension This extension is designed to work with a self-hosted URL shortener, giving you full control over link creation, storage, and security. It is built for users who prefer owning their infrastructure rather than relying on third-party shortening services. The extension acts as a lightweight client that sends requests to your own backend, allowing you to generate short links directly from the browser while keeping all data under your control. Key characteristics: - Designed primarily for self-hosting - No public or anonymous link creation - Backend-enforced authorization - Links and access keys can be revoked at any time - Explicit handling of disabled or expired links - Minimal surface area and predictable behavior Who this is for: - Developers running their own URL shortener - Users who want full ownership of their links - Anyone prioritizing security, transparency, and long-term maintainability This project is not intended to compete with large public shortener platforms. Instead, it focuses on correctness, security, and controlled usage. If you want to deploy and use the same system yourself, visit the project repository on GitHub and follow the self-hosting instructions provided here: https://github.com/AndrewN04/url-shortner
