## What it is
Briefkasten is a self-hosted bookmarking web application for saving, organizing, tagging, and reading saved links, including RSS feed reading. Version 2 is a SvelteKit frontend with a Hono-based backend API, deployable via Docker.

## Use cases
- self-host a bookmark manager
- save and organize web links with tags
- read RSS feeds alongside bookmarks
- replace browser bookmarks with a searchable archive
- host my own read-it-later app

## When to choose
- you want full control over your bookmark data on your own server
- you need tagging, categories, archives, and RSS reading in one tool
- you prefer Docker-based self-hosting with optional cloud services

## When to avoid
- you want a zero-config hosted service without managing a database and object storage
- you need offline-first mobile apps
- you only need simple browser bookmarks without a server

- function: web-framework, auth, search-engine, http-server
- domain: web-development, self-hosted, developer-tools
