CropIT

CropIT is a modern link management web application constructed to provide efficient URL shortening, custom link branding, and real-time analytics. Developed as part of a college assignment, the project balances practical functionality with industry-standard best practices. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Long, unwieldy links are hard to share and track. There was also a need to build a system that not only shortens URLs but also handles user authentication, analytics, and content moderation within an academic project scope. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

We implemented a scalable architecture using Next.js for server-side rendering and API routes, combined with PostgreSQL as the database and Drizzle ORM for type-safe queries. Features such as user login, analytics, and admin tools were integrated to simulate a real-world link management platform. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
