About linkding
linkding is a self-hosted bookmark manager designed to be minimal, fast and easy to set up. According to its homepage, it runs as a single Docker container and uses SQLite as its database. It automatically fetches titles, descriptions, icons and preview images for saved websites. It can also create archive snapshots of bookmarked pages, either as local HTML files or on the Internet Archive.
Bookmarks can be added and searched from Firefox and Chrome extensions, and a REST API is available for scripts and third-party apps. Bookmarks can be imported and exported in the Netscape HTML format. Multiple users are supported, and bookmarks can be shared with other users or guests. Because the service is self-hosted, the person or organization running it is responsible for hosting it. Pricing information is not available.
