  One-Click Shortening: Click the extension icon to shorten the current page instantly.
  
  Context Menu Integration: Right-click on any link or page to "Shorten with YOURLS" immediately.
  
  Custom Keywords: Define your own custom alias (e.g., yoursite.com/sale) directly from the popup.
  
  Auto-Copy: Shortened URLs are automatically copied to your clipboard for immediate sharing.
  
  Secure: Your API credentials are stored locally in your browser and communicated directly to your server.
  
  How to Use:
  
  Install the extension.
  
  Open the Options page and enter your YOURLS installation URL and Secret Signature token.
  
  Start shortening!
  
  Requirements:
  
  A self-hosted YOURLS (Your Own URL Shortener) installation (v1.7+ recommended).

  PeakURL is the official browser extension for people who want to create short links without leaving the page they are already on.
  
  If you already run PeakURL, this extension gives you a faster way to shorten the current page or a selected link directly from Chrome. It connects to your own PeakURL server
  with your server URL and API key, so the workflow stays simple and under your control.
  
  What you can do with PeakURL:
  
  - Shorten the current page from the extension popup
  - Shorten selected links from the right-click menu
  - Connect directly to your own PeakURL server
  - Copy the returned short URL straight into your workflow
  - Stay in the browser instead of opening the full dashboard for every link
  
  Who it is for:
  
  - Editors
  - Marketers
  - Support teams
  - Anyone already using a self-hosted PeakURL install
  
  What you need:
  
  - A working PeakURL install
  - Your PeakURL server URL
  - A valid API key from your PeakURL dashboard
