I have been a solo-dev working on Blanq[1] for more than a year now. It is a powerful link shortening platform that supports custom domains, SSL and traffic routing. I released the API to simply link management for you. The plans are cost-effective and the service is extremely reliable(99.99% uptime).
The backend is Java Spring based with Mysql as DB. To generate docs, I have used Redoc open source tool that relies on Open API spec. I will soon release Zapier integration as well.
For graphs, I have used apex charts that are a pleasure to use. The UI is built on Vue and uses some third party plugins.
Here's an example of analytics https://blanq.io/analytics.html
I am an advocate of privacy and have tried to incorporate as many best practices as possible to avoid identifying users.
I am open to feedback and would love to hear your experience.
