Visit linkding

linkding is a self-hosted bookmark manager that solves the problem of organizing and accessing personal bookmarks without relying on third-party cloud services. It is designed to be minimal, fast, and easy to set up, running as a single Docker container with SQLite as its database.

Its main capabilities include automatic fetching of titles, descriptions, icons, and preview images for bookmarked websites. Users can enable archiving to create snapshots of pages as local HTML files or via the Internet Archive. The tool supports bulk editing, import and export in Netscape HTML format, and multi-user functionality with the ability to share bookmarks. It offers browser extensions for Firefox and Chrome, a REST API for scripting or third-party integrations, and adjustable UI settings to enable or disable features as needed.

The product is intended for individuals or teams who want a self-hosted, low-maintenance bookmarking solution. It is available as a free, open-source application that users deploy and manage themselves.
