## What it is
Faved is a free, open-source, self-hostable bookmark manager with customizable nested tags, instant search, and duplicate detection, built for large link collections. It runs via Docker, stores all data locally, and offers a Chrome extension, bookmarklet, and PWA for saving links from any device.

## Use cases
- self-host a private bookmark manager
- organize bookmarks with nested tags
- migrate from Pocket or Raindrop.io
- import browser bookmarks keeping folder structure
- save links from any browser with a bookmarklet
- manage a large personal link library with instant search

## When to choose
- you want full ownership of your bookmark data on your own server
- you need hierarchical tagging beyond flat folders
- you want a fast, lightweight Pocket/Raindrop alternative
- you need import from browsers and read-it-later services preserving structure

## When to avoid
- you want a fully managed hosted service without running Docker
- you need team/collaborative bookmark sharing features
- you prefer a native desktop app rather than a web/PWA interface
