Hey there my name is Piero and I'm one of the social media managers over at Replit. While rewriting Replit.sh (our URL shortener I built in just 48 hours back in October) from scratch, I wanted to see just how small I could make a functional URL shortener. With a few tricks up my sleeve, that came out to just 16 lines. This also happens to be my first Replit blogpost, even though I've been at the company for close to 9 months now! Any constructive criticism is appreciated and I hope you all have a nice evening :)
