You know, I'm currently writing a book about automated testing (you see a fragment of it). Sometimes it's necessary to quote a webpage, like a blog post of a news article. Some URLs are pretty long and, because of that, look ugly on paper. We are supposed to use URL-shorteners, which usually are hosted services (not always free).

Long story short, I created my own serverless URL-shortener hosted on GitHub Pages: https://github.com/yegor256/jttu (short for "jump to the URL"). Works like a charm and costs $12/year for the domain name. Feel free to add your URLs or simply fork the repository and host on your domain.
