About the Project

I developed the ShrinkIt.me website, a URL shortening platform designed for simplicity, speed, and reliability. Using Next.js for the frontend and Node.js for the backend, the site provides users with a streamlined experience for shortening and managing URLs while ensuring fast load times and efficient data handling.

ShrinkIt’s core functionality includes web push notifications, integrated via custom-built JavaScript SDKs. These notifications allow users to stay engaged, receiving timely updates about their link performance and analytics without needing to visit the platform regularly.

“In digital products, simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”

This project focused on creating a platform that is not only user-friendly but also scalable and secure. With real-time link tracking and analytics features, users can monitor their shortened URLs’ performance effectively. The backend architecture, built with Node.js and containerized with Docker, guarantees high availability and smooth operation even under heavy traffic.

Key Technologies

  • Next.js for server-side rendering and a fast, responsive user interface
  • Node.js for backend services and API development
  • JavaScript SDK to integrate web push notifications for user engagement
  • Docker for containerization and scalability of the platform
  • MongoDB for efficient storage and management of shortened URLs

ShrinkIt is a reflection of my focus on building highly optimized, user-centric platforms that deliver on both performance and functionality. The project demonstrates my ability to integrate backend logic with modern front-end technologies to create seamless digital experiences.
