Deploy and Host tailscale-golink on Railway

golink is a private experimental shortlink service for your tailnet. It lets you create short, memorable links of the form go/your-link for the websites you and your team use most.

If you were looking for a SaaS go link service that doesn't use Tailscale, you might be thinking of golinks.io or trot.to

Common Use Cases

At Tailscale, we use golink internally for creating memorable and shareable shortcuts to internal resources on our corporate tailnet, as well as to URLs on the public internet. We have configured permissions for admin access through ACL grants.

We outlined some of our more interesting link templates in the blog post announcing golink's release.
