Sidebar Bookmarks - Manager & Organizer

Browse, organize, and search your bookmarks in a sidebar tree. Drag-and-drop reordering, duplicate detection, and dark mode.

The best free bookmark manager for Chrome — browse, organize, and search your existing bookmarks in a sidebar tree without leaving your current tab. Tired of Chrome's built-in bookmark manager? Sidebar Bookmarks is a 100% free bookmark organizer that works with your existing Chrome bookmarks — no import, no setup, no migration. It gives you a fast, file-explorer-style bookmark tree right in Chrome's Side Panel. Manage hundreds of bookmarks and folders with drag-and-drop, multi-select, bulk actions, inline editing, duplicate detection, and dark mode — all in one lightweight extension. No premium tiers, no ads, free forever. ⭐ WHY SIDEBAR BOOKMARKS? Sidebar Bookmarks reads directly from your existing Chrome bookmarks, so everything you've already saved is there instantly. Unlike the default bookmark manager, it keeps your bookmarks visible and accessible at all times. No new tabs, no popups — just a clean sidebar that stays open while you browse. 📂 BOOKMARK TREE VIEW View all your bookmarks and folders in an expandable, collapsible tree — just like a file explorer. Click any folder to open or close it and see what's inside. Guide lines show what belongs to which folder, and each folder shows how many bookmarks it holds (you can hide the counts in Settings). Navigate your entire bookmark collection at a glance without switching tabs. ⭐ ONE-CLICK BOOKMARKING The top of the sidebar always shows the page you're on. Click "Bookmark github.com" to save it to any folder, or see "Saved in Reading" when it's already bookmarked — with one click to move or remove it. 🔀 DRAG AND DROP BOOKMARK ORGANIZER Reorder bookmarks and move them between folders by dragging. Drop above, below, or inside any folder. Select several bookmarks or folders and drag them all together — they keep their order. The fastest way to organize bookmarks in Chrome. ☑️ MULTI-SELECT AND BULK ACTIONS Shift-click to start selecting bookmarks and folders, click to add or remove items, and Shift-click again to select a whole range. Selecting a folder selects everything inside it. Then open them all in new tabs, move them to another folder, or delete them in one go from the selection bar. 🔤 SORT BOOKMARKS Sort any folder alphabetically by name, by URL, or by date added — A to Z, Z to A, newest or oldest first. Preview the new order right in the tree before you apply it, and include subfolders to sort everything at once. Folders always stay on top. ✏️ INLINE BOOKMARK EDITING Rename bookmarks and folders in place. Edit bookmark titles and URLs without opening a separate dialog. Quick, simple, efficient. 🔍 BOOKMARK SEARCH Search your bookmarks instantly. Start typing and the tree filters in real time, showing only matching bookmarks and their parent folders. Find any bookmark in seconds. 🔗 DUPLICATE BOOKMARK FINDER Find and remove duplicate bookmarks with one click. Scan your entire collection, review duplicate groups side by side, pick the copy you want to keep, and clean up the rest. 📋 CONTEXT MENUS Right-click any bookmark to open, open in a new tab, open in incognito, copy URL, edit, or delete. Right-click folders to create subfolders, sort, rename, or remove. 🌙 DARK MODE Toggle between light, dark, and system-matched themes. Your theme preference is saved and synced across devices. 🔒 FAST, PRIVATE, AND OFFLINE Sidebar Bookmarks works with Chrome's built-in bookmark and storage APIs. No accounts, no sign-up — your bookmarks never leave your browser. We only collect anonymous usage counts (like which features are used) to improve the extension, never bookmark titles, URLs, or browsing history. PERMISSIONS - Bookmarks — read and organize your bookmark tree - Storage — save your preferences (theme, expanded folders, display settings) - Side Panel — display the bookmark sidebar in Chrome - Tabs — detect the current page for the one-click bookmark button
