Shlink is an open source, self hosted URL shortener with a REST API, detailed visit analytics, QR codes and the official web client. It lets teams create and track short links under their own domains rather than relying on a third party service.
The cloudimg image is hardened and fully patched with Shlink and its web client preinstalled and no manual setup. A fresh administrator API key is generated on first boot, wired into the web client and stored in a root only file, and every instance is backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.
