Shiori

Shiori is a simple bookmark manager written in Go, designed as a lightweight alternative to read-it-later services like Pocket. It can run as a web application or be used from the command line, and is distributed as a portable single binary.

Key Features

• Create, edit, delete, and search bookmarks
• Web interface and command-line interface
• Import and export using Netscape Bookmark files
• Import bookmarks from Pocket
• Parses readable content and, where possible, creates an offline archive of saved webpages
• Supports multiple databases: SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB
• Optional browser extension support (Firefox/Chrome)

Use Cases

• Personal read-it-later and bookmark organization with offline access
• Self-hosted bookmarking for teams or small groups with a simple web UI
• Migrating bookmarks from Pocket or browser exports into a searchable library

Limitations and Considerations

• Offline archiving and readable-content extraction depend on website structure and may not work consistently for all pages
• Browser extension support is marked as beta in the project

Shiori is a practical choice if you want a fast, minimal bookmarking service with both CLI and web access, plus the convenience of offline snapshots. Its single-binary deployment and broad database support make it easy to run in many environments.
