You can experiment with this without needing to buy a domain or pay for anything. Try deploying this demo repo to Netlify to get a your own URL shortener including the edge function which detects unfurlers and renders its custom template. It also includes Kent's netlify-shortener utility script which has instructions on how to add a system wide command to quickly shorten links for you.
