Description

This repo serves a couple of basic purposes:

1. Logs visits to a webpage
2. Redirects slugs to new addresses

The functionality is pretty basic, and the most important piecs are contained in the database schema. A DB class (built for sqlite) is provided with the package. Feel free to overwrite the class functionality if you want to use your own database engine.
