About LittleLink
LittleLink is a lightweight, self hosted link in bio project in HTML and CSS, released under the MIT license. It is a DIY alternative to Linktree in the marketing and customer engagement ecosystem, where users collect public links in one page. The project solves the problem of presenting multiple branded destinations without a hosted service or a large framework, because a user can fork the repository, edit basic HTML, and publish on their own infrastructure.
