Description
Shlink is a self-hosted URL shortener developed in PHP. It's an open-source alternative to services like Bitly, but designed to give you full control by hosting it on your infrastructure. Some of its core features include:
- Creating and managing short URLs.
- Detailed analytics (clicks by location, referrer, device, etc.).
- QR code generation.
- REST API for integration with other tools.
- Tags and expiration dates for links.
- Integrations with third-party services via webhooks or plugins.
There's also a companion web UI (Shlink Web Client) and a CLI tool for management.

The shlink script is ready for testing:
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/raw/main/ct/shlink.sh)"The initial API key is stored in /opt/shlink/.env. You need it to connect Shlink Web Client or any API consumer.
Configure your short domain by editing DEFAULT_DOMAIN in /opt/shlink/.env and restarting the service.
Shlink API runs on port 8080, the Web Client (if installed) on port 3000.
Note: This is not in the official repo yet—it's just a dev version! After merging into ProxmoxVE, it will need to be recreated.

Install works with one issue, update and webui function as expected.
Install output shows two urls:
I am assuming this is just an oversight and first link should have been removed and is a leftover from the template?

8080 is Just the API without Frontend ^^
