Pot să vibecodez ReSlug?

Ce construiești

Map a short slug to a destination, 302 to it, log each click with country, device, and referrer, filter obvious bots, and render a QR code for any link.

ce îți trebuie

• Cloudflare account (Workers, KV, D1)
• a domain you control
• wrangler CLI

Same build as Bitly · the difference is ReSlug's free tier already includes the custom domain, so check what you actually need before building anything.

Promptul

O sesiune cu un agent de coding și versiunea ta merge.

Build me a link shortener with click analytics and QR codes to replace ReSlug. Requirements:

- Cloudflare Workers via wrangler: KV for the slug lookup, D1 for the click
  log. Free tier, and it runs on my own domain.
- A worker on go.mydomain.com/{slug} reads KV and 302s, writing the click to
  D1 inside ctx.waitUntil so the redirect never waits on the database.
- Slugs are random 6-character base62 by default, but I can set a custom
  back-half, and creating one that already exists fails loudly instead of
  overwriting it.
- Log per click: slug, timestamp, country and city from request.cf, device
  type parsed from the user-agent, and referer. Drop clicks whose user-agent
  matches a known bot list before they reach the stats.
- Per-link routing rules: an optional country-to-URL and device-to-URL map
  checked before the default destination.
- Optional expiry date, click cap, and password per link · expired or capped
  links 302 to a fallback URL I set, password links show a minimal form first.
- Generate a PNG QR code for any link with the qrcode npm package, served at
  /qr/{slug} and cached, so print material points at the same tracked link.
- An /admin page behind one password (wrangler secret) listing links with
  clicks per day, top countries, top referrers, and device split per link.
- Secrets via wrangler secret, never in wrangler.toml. No accounts, no
  third-party analytics, no telemetry.
- Out of scope: bio pages, teams, and a public API.
- README: wrangler setup, the KV namespace and D1 database, the DNS record,
  and a warning that these links die with the domain, so use a domain you
  intend to keep renewing.

Ce pierzi

• links that outlive your own infrastructure · a domain you stop renewing takes every link with it
• bot filtering that actually works · the heuristics take iteration you will not do for one project
• geo and device routing rules, scheduled links, and click caps behind a dashboard instead of a config file
• bio pages and branded QR codes
• a REST API and webhooks other tools can call

De ce se plătește în continuare

The redirect was never the product. What the subscription buys is a redirect that stays up when your side project does not, analytics you did not have to build or debug, and routing, expiry, and password controls behind a dashboard instead of a config file. ReSlug's own twist is that most of that is on the free plan, custom domain included, so the paid tier is really about unlimited tracked clicks, longer analytics retention, and API access · the people paying 9 USD are past personal scale anyway.

generous free tier · the hosted product undercuts the DIY build at personal scale
