Short URL service

Started writing this service as a way to learn how short url services work. Though not a perfect service, it still works!

Things that are possible today

• Create a short URL
• Delete a short URL
• Go to the short URL(Ex: this service is hosted at http://localhost:8080/ after short url is created if you go to short URL with http://localhost:8080/g1GqqrMDM then it would redirect to the Original URL

To Do

• Build a UI to create and list the short URLs
• Integrate with Github, Google for authentication
• Dashbord showing analytics of the Short URLs
