What gobookmarks actually does
Gobookmarks provides a self-hosted landing page to display and organise links stored in remote version control repositories like GitHub and GitLab, or directly in a local Git store. It acts as a centralised portal for your saved links without relying on proprietary bookmarking services. Written in Go, the application is packaged as a Docker container for straightforward deployment.
Best fit: It is well-suited for developers and technical users who already manage their data using Git workflows and prefer to keep their bookmark collections within their own infrastructure.
Worth knowing: Development activity is currently slowing down, and the AGPL-3.0 licence may impose strict copyleft requirements if you modify and redistribute the codebase.
Deployment notes
You will typically run the Docker container behind a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination. Persistent storage will be required depending on whether your bookmarks are synced from a local Git repository or remote services.
