About Linkwarden
Linkwarden is a collaborative bookmark manager built to preserve webpages, not just link to them. Saved pages are archived as screenshots, PDFs and clean readable copies, then organized into collections with tags and shared with teammates or family members. It is open source and can be self-hosted for free with all features, or used through the official cloud service. Linkwarden suits researchers, teams and heavy readers who want their saved knowledge to survive link rot.
