Problem

Sharing links, expiring text/code, and QR payloads often requires separate tools and gives users little control over slugs, access, expiry, or basic view/click records.

Constraints

  1. C1

    Password protection is application access control, not safe secret storage.

  2. C2

    Click/view logging has privacy and retention implications.

  3. C3

    Installed Redis and checked-in Docker artifacts are not documented as active/reliable runtime paths.

Architecture

Next.js localized URL/text/QR UI; server actions/routes for creation, redirect, and access checks; Prisma/MongoDB persistence; authentication, validation, and QR/browser-share adapters.

01

Interface

Next.js localized URL/text/QR UI.

02

Domain

Server actions/routes for creation, redirect, and access checks.

03

Data and integrations

Prisma/MongoDB persistence.

04

Quality and delivery

Authentication, validation, and QR/browser-share adapters.

Decisions

D1

Put URLs and text shares on one persistence/access model

Put URLs and text shares on one persistence/access model.

D2

Enforce expiry/password/view limits at the server path

Enforce expiry/password/view limits at the server path.

D3

Document inactive/stale infrastructure

Document inactive/stale infrastructure instead of advertising dependency presence as a capability.

Contribution

  • Implemented custom-slug URL creation and redirects.
  • Added text/code shares with language/visibility/expiry/password/view settings.
  • Built QR customization/download/copy/share.
  • Modeled persistence and account/localization flows with validation/tests.

Outcomes

  • Users can shorten and track links.
  • Share bounded text/code.
  • Create reusable QR payloads.
  • Apply supported access and lifecycle controls while understanding their privacy limits.
