👋 Hi Product Hunt!
I'm excited to share Flash - a simple browser extension that lets you create custom shortcuts for your favorite websites.
Instead of typing long URLs or searching through bookmarks, just type your shortcut (like `gh` for GitHub or `cal` for Google Calendar) into your address bar and press Enter.
⚡ Open websites faster with custom shortcuts
🔒 No accounts or sign-ups required

Flash is intentionally lightweight and focused on doing one thing really well.
I'd love to hear how you'd use it, what shortcuts you'd create, and any feedback or feature ideas you have. Thanks for checking it out! 🙌
