URLShorten

This is a simple URL shortener written using Python and Django. It makes use of the built in models system. I will be putting up a Heroku link to a live demo soon. In the mean time...

Set up instructions

1. Unpack folder, cd into the directory and start up the virtual environment that has everything set up for you!

source env/Scripts/activate

2. If you see an env tag above, you're good to go! Next, start up the server, use the command:

python manage.py runserver

3. You should see it go up, as soon as that happens you should see the server up and you can navigate to localhost:8000 to check out the URL shortener.
