The easiest way to deploy your own url-shortener using Elixir
What?
Devito is open-source software to make your own custom domain short links.
Instead of passing around long, hard to remember links like
www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ,
you can make your own short links like
cool.dev/abc.
How?
Devito is written in Elixir. As such, one of the best and easiest deployment options is to use
Fly.io. You'll need to setup an account on fly.io, set one environment variable, then
deploy. It's that easy.
Step-by-step instructions are available on Github.
