gitmarks

Save bookmarks to your own GitHub repo. No server, no account — your data is a file in a repo you control.

**Your bookmarks, in your own Git repo.** gitmarks syncs your browser bookmarks to a private GitHub repository that you own — as a plain, human-readable JSON file. There's no gitmarks server, no account to create, and no tracking. Your data never touches anyone's backend but GitHub's, authenticated with your own token. **Why you'll like it** • **You own your data.** Bookmarks are a `bookmarks.json` file in your private repo. Export it, read it, diff it, delete it — no lock-in. • **A time machine for your bookmarks.** Every change is a git commit, so your full history is preserved forever. Restore anything. • **Two-way sync with your native bookmarks.** Add, edit, or remove a bookmark in your browser and it syncs to your repo within seconds; changes on GitHub pull back into your browser. • **Save the current tab — or all open tabs** — in one click, grouped into a dated folder. • **Cross-browser & cross-device.** Chrome and Firefox share the same repo. • **A companion web app** to search, tag, organize, and export your bookmarks. • **Private by design.** No server, no analytics, no third parties. The extension talks only to api.github.com. • **Open source.** Read every line: https://github.com/paperhurts/gitmarks **What you need** A GitHub account, a private repository for your bookmarks, and a fine-grained personal access token scoped to only that repo (Contents: read/write). Setup takes a couple of minutes — the extension walks you through it. **Note:** gitmarks is built for people comfortable with GitHub. If you want one-click cloud sync with no setup, your browser's built-in sync is simpler; gitmarks is for people who want to *own* their bookmarks.
