- routes defined in routes.py uses the <path:..> function to catch every non-empty url comming along - request.full_path is used to get the entire url, as <path:> would remove eg GET '?' from the url, which we don't want for the link forwarding. - request.full_path[1:] removes the '/' from the url

Link shortener
this project is a tiny flask implementation that automatically generates shortened links for any url.
If you're on a website, add short.maenle.tech to the beginning of the url,
and the flask app returns a shortened url that it saves in a json file on the
server and forwards to the original url when accessed.
Further Todos
- add https encryption
- add uWSGI
- use sqlite3 instead of json
