LoFloccus is a free, open-source desktop companion application designed to synchronize browser bookmarks from Floccus into local folders. It provides an alternative to storing bookmarks directly on dedicated WebDAV or Nextcloud servers. The software runs a lightweight local WebDAV server that receives bookmark data from the Floccus browser extension. Users can synchronize the resulting files with cloud storage or file synchronization tools such as Dropbox, Syncthing, and rsync. Security restrictions limit file access to a designated directory and supported bookmark formats. LoFloccus generates unique connection credentials and stores configuration preferences between sessions. Available for Windows and macOS, it operates from the system tray or menu bar.
