Why building a URL Shortener Next.js Starter Kit is harder than it should be
Building link shortening with click tracking and redirect logic requires database and server configuration
Analytics features like geographic data, device breakdown, and time-series stats require significant data work
Custom domain support and team-based link management require careful auth and database design
Subscription billing for link volume limits or team seats is complex without a billing layer
Building an admin panel and user dashboard with link performance data takes substantial development
