w3.do 🌎

URL shortener service enabled by the NOSTR protocol!

https://w3.do/

- create a shortened URL - no sign in required, just paste your link and get the shortened URL

- create shorten URL API - developers building a client and need to shorten some URLs? GET https://w3.do/get?url=

- 301 redirect for all resources - its faster to redirect and its permanently pointing directly to the resources, you can embed the URL as if you are embedding the original URL

nostr:npub19mduaf5569jx9xz555jcx3v06mvktvtpu0zgk47n4lcpjsz43zzqhj6vzk here’s a recap and intro. Thanks for sharing every every developer’s work thus far.

Check out the updated UI with generated background images instead of image backgrounds. See what you think of the UI and UX.

+ Background is a great touch

+ API is awesome (hope to see it in some main clients as an option soon)

- Checkmark is still too bright imo (#817EFF or a darker green)

- The text input bar should be empty again after use so you can directly spin up a new link

- I still didn't get around to a logo (soon!)

- It'd be great to see and easily copy my previously made links (showing favicon, title and shortened link) when I'm logged in.

I started imagining that last part a bit in this Figma: https://w3.do/6phKD0UF

Niel! 🙌

Is that hex your suggested primary colour?

Seems ok. Would be nice if it auto copied generated url and had a copy button. Spinner keeps spinning for me.

The gradient is distracting to me but super minor all things considered.

Not a fan of the gradient either :-(

Maybe it’s transitioning too fast, currently 15 seconds.

Maybe the colours scheme, currently it’s

#ee7752, #e73c7e, #23a6d5, #23d5ab

Your lightning address not works ⚡

Works for me 🐶🐾🫡

From Alby not works... 😔

Does mine work? I’ll zap back, if you try 🐶🐾🤔

Will be useful when it supports nostr event types
