So you can access in the local URL: localhost:8000

How to use

  1. In the home page you can find an input text. Type the URL there and press Enter/Submit button
  2. It will generate a short URL.
  3. If you click in the short URL you will be redirect to the original URL
  4. To get the statistics you just add a plus (+) signal in the end of the URL, example:
    • URL: localhost:8000/2A14S6REML
    • Statistic URL: localhost:8000//2A14S6REML+

Obs: Replace the localhost:8000 by your domain
