\section{SecureURL: A Containerized URL Shortener}
This project will develop a simple web-based URL shortening application that allows users to enter a long URL and receive a shortened URL that redirects to the original address. The application will also store URLs and basic usage information in a database and may provide statistics such as the number of times a shortened URL has been accessed.
