What is it?

Faved is a bookmark manager for large collections. It organizes saved links with nested tags, so a tag such as Backend can sit under Programming Languages, and it can roll up items from child tags into parent views. Titles, descriptions and preview images are fetched automatically when a bookmark is added, and duplicates are detected.

The app can be self-hosted with no external dependencies, in which case all data is stored locally in SQLite. A hosted cloud version is also offered. Saving is possible through a Chrome extension, a browser bookmarklet, or Apple Shortcuts on iOS, macOS and iPadOS. Existing bookmarks can be imported from Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge with folder structure preserved as nested tags, or migrated from Raindrop.io and Pocket.

The interface is responsive and installable as a PWA, with light and dark modes, instant search, sorting, bulk actions, and card, list or table layouts. The frontend is built with React, TypeScript, Tailwind and shadcn/ui, and the backend runs on PHP 8.
