While I don't plan on providing support for self-hosting, I can tell you some basic things to get you started. This project is programmed in Node (obviously), with Express.js to serve content and qjson-db to store slugs.
Just clone this GitHub repo, and download all the prerequisites. You can find them in package.json.
You can spin up a free host on Replit ⠕ or 🎏 Glitch.
The .env file has a few simple keys in them. You can rename these to suite your infrastructure better. Stripe information can be found at dashboard.stripe.com
wave - Gradient information for wave gradient on home page, not required
stripeApi - Stripe.com API key for payments
stripePriceId - Stripe Price ID for Custom URL slug payments
I'm not going to include that in this project, but you can simply grab the code by viewing the source at https://0tr.me.
It would be great if you could not only report bugs you find (by opening an issue), but create a pull request that helps solve it too. If you contribute, you'll be listed on the homepage forever.
This project essentially has a do whatever you want license. You can copy code, host this locally, or steal it with or without credit (even though it is greatly appreciated to linkback to my website). Please note any cdn.glitch.global files are subject to copyright by their lawful owner.
