Mapped

Shorten that URL...

Motivations

There are 2 apps almost every developer has built. A todo app and A url shortner.. I realized that I haven't built a url shortnening application and I been looking forward to learning devops. So here, I am building a convoluted, sophisticated, web-scale url shortner with modern practices.
