Heh, I did the opposite recently after reading "Software Engineering at Google" and I discovered that even though it would be very easy to make: there is no equivalent to the `go/` permanent "friendly" URL shortener.
It can be backed by a TOML file for hardcoding URLS or a database for making it easy to add new ones (which I think is the Google way).
If I did a stupid; or a better version already exists: let me know.

- steventey 4y agoTrue! But a link shortener SaaS is more than just redirects – it also needs data visualization to help marketing teams understand the performance of their links, which is half of the value prop imho! That being said, absolutely love your spin on the go/ links – I learned about it from my friend who works at GitHub and it's kinda blown my mind ever since :)
