Liteshort is a free and open-source URL shortener written in Python. It allows you to create your own URL shortening service with just a few simple steps. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install and set up Liteshort on Kali Linux Latest.
Before we begin the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to clone the Liteshort repository from GitHub using Git. Open a terminal window and run the following command:

This will create a new directory called liteshort in your current working directory.
Next, you need to install the necessary dependencies to run Liteshort. To do this, navigate to the liteshort directory and run the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
This will install all the required dependencies for Liteshort.
Now that you have installed the dependencies, it's time to configure Liteshort. Open the config.py file located in the liteshort directory using your favorite text editor.
# config.py
DEBUG = True
SECRET_KEY = 'your-secret-key-here'
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = 'sqlite:///database.db'
You can modify the SECRET_KEY value to any value you like. Make sure to keep this value secret, as it is used to secure your application.
Finally, you can start the Liteshort server by running the following command:
python run.py
