buku is a powerful bookmark manager and a personal textual mini-web. For those who prefer the GUI, bukuserver exposes a browsable front-end on a local web host server. When I started writing it, I couldn't find a flexible command-line solution with a private, portable, merge-able database along with seamless GUI integration. Hence, buku. buku can import bookmarks from the browser(s) or fetch the title, tags and description of a URL from the web. Use your favorite editor to add, compose and update bookmarks. Search bookmarks instantly with multiple search options, including regex and a deep scan mode (handy with URLs). It can look up broken links on Wayback Machine. There's an Easter Egg to revisit random bookmarks. There's no tracking, hidden history, obsolete records, usage analytics or homing. To get started right away, jump to the Quickstart section. buku has one of the best documentation around. The man page comes with examples.

  • Auto-import from Firefox, Google Chrome and Chromium
