Very simple URL shortener

Incredibly fast and simple URL shortener that runs on almost nothing.

It used Redis as a backend, so this will scale up to a considerable amount of URLs.

To set it up locally, you just need to follow this guide

git clone https://github.com/msanterre/canoe.git

The best way to run this locally is to use fresh

go get github.com/pilu/fresh

Then go to the project root and run

fresh

• Provide dockerfile && docker-compose.yml
• Validation
• Pretty up README
• Ensure slugs don't collide
• Stats
• JSON support

Contributions are welcome. Fork this repo and submit a pull request and I will review it.
