API Design
Simple two get endpoints:
- takes url as strong parameter saves t and returns shortened url
- url with path is url saved in our database and redirects to original url
High-Level Design
Describe the overall system architecture. Identify the main components needed to solve the problem end-to-end. Use the diagramming tool to create a block diagram.
Detailed Component Design
Deep dive into 2-3 key components. Explain how they work, how they scale, discuss tradeoffs, capacity, and any relevant algorithms or data structures.
