Public changelog

What's new in Sniplinks

A running log of every meaningful improvement. No marketing fluff — just what shipped, when.

  1. Public API, bookmarklet, changelog

    • ·Free public REST API at /api/public/v1/shorten — no auth, CORS-enabled JSON.
    • ·Drag-to-bookmarks bookmarklet that shortens the current tab in one click.
    • ·This public changelog page so you can see what shipped when.

  2. Cached redirects, OG images, public stats

    • ·301 redirects now ship with a 1-hour Cache-Control so browsers and CDNs reuse hot lookups.
    • ·Unknown short codes now return a real HTTP 404 instead of 200 with an error page.
    • ·Dynamic OG images at /api/public/og/<code> — branded share cards with destination + clicks.
    • ·Public click stats page at /<code>/stats with creation date and total clicks.

  3. Custom aliases & link previews

    • ·Custom vanity aliases — pick your own code instead of the random 6-char one.
    • ·Link preview pages at /<code>+ — see where a Sniplinks URL goes before clicking.
    • ·Hardened RLS — the short_links table is no longer enumerable to anonymous users.

  4. Server-side redirects & QR codes

    • ·Real HTTP 301 redirects on the server — crawlers and link unfurlers now follow correctly.
    • ·QR code generation in the result card with one-click PNG download.
    • ·Service-role admin client for fast, RLS-bypassing redirect resolution.
