Overview
The NSYS Cutter is our lightweight and efficient URL shortener, designed with a balance of internal practicality and public openness. Built on .NET and Blazor Server, Cutter provides a discreet but highly reliable service for generating and managing shortened URLs across the NSYS domains and beyond.
While Cutter was originally designed to serve our internal operational needs, it remains publicly accessible and open-source, offering a simple and transparent approach to URL shortening without the clutter of ad-driven platforms.
