Where to start customizing vanityURLs

Once the Quickstart works, the redirector is already useful. Customization is the part where it becomes yours: your links, your public pages, your brand, your policies, your access rules, and your operating habits.

You do not need to customize everything at once. Start with the area that hurts most.

Goal	Start here
Change the public look and static pages	Custom overrides
Configure the split-color wordmark and brand assets	Brand
Add, inspect, or update short links	LNK and Link format
Add time-based destinations	Scheduled links
Decide which languages to publish	Internationalization
Configure jurisdiction and public trust contacts	Jurisdiction
Protect private operational paths	Access control
Protect the domain before traffic reaches the Worker	Network protection
Configure redirect analytics	Analytics
Tune allow/block policy	Policy and blocklist

The nicest path is usually not linear. A personal instance might start with links and branding. A team instance might start with Access control and owner labels. A public marketing domain might start with legal pages, analytics, and network protection.
