@deveshb15 and I built a URL shortener because the existing ones don't let you change the destination source once you create it.
The main benefit is really just the fact that once you claim a link, you don't need to claim another and you can change the destination that link leads to as many times as you want - we need this a lot and don't want to pay a monthly fee for this.
We used nextjs for frontend and backend, firebase for authentication and database, and used middleware in nextjs to the redirect url to desired location.
Give it a go and let me know if you have any feedback.
