Take complete control of your bookmarks with Faved — a fast, private, open-source bookmark manager built for power users and large libraries. Self-host it in seconds with Docker, or skip the setup with the hosted cloud option. Either way, your data stays yours.

Faved is designed for people whose collections have outgrown the browser's bookmarks bar. A clean, clutter-free UI keeps every major action — searching, filtering, tagging, and editing — a single click away, with no jumping between screens.

Key features that set it apart:

  • Advanced nested tagging — Organize bookmarks in a real hierarchy (e.g. Programming Languages → Backend → Go), customize tags with color and description, pin frequently used ones, and optionally roll up items from child tags
  • Smart bookmark management — Automatic fetching of titles, descriptions, and preview images, plus duplicate detection when you save
  • Efficiency-first UI — Instant search, flexible sorting, bulk actions, and customizable card/list/table layouts; fully responsive and installable as a PWA for a near-native mobile experience
  • System-synced light/dark mode — Matches your device automatically
  • Save from anywhere — A lightweight bookmarklet works in any browser without extensions, plus Apple Shortcuts integration for the native share sheet on iOS, macOS, and iPadOS
  • Effortless migration — Import from Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge with your folder structure preserved as nested tags, or migrate from Raindrop.io, Pocket, and other tools while retaining collections, tags, and metadata

The one-command Docker setup gets you running in seconds — pull the image, start the container, and your personal bookmark manager is live. Prefer zero maintenance? The cloud option gives you the same experience, fully hosted.

Perfect for privacy-conscious power users who want a fast, flexible bookmark solution without sacrificing data ownership.
