Linkstash

About

Linkstash is a quiet little drawer for the links you want to keep.

Open it from Chrome's side panel, paste a URL, and Linkstash pulls the page title, description, and favicon automatically. Drop it into a folder, add a note about why you saved it, and carry on with your day. No accounts, no sync, no servers — everything lives in your browser.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

- Save any link with a tap. Title, description, and favicon are fetched in the background. If a site blocks the fetch, the form stays editable so you can fill it in yourself — no error noise.
- Use the "Current tab" shortcut to save whatever page you're reading with one click.
- Organize with folders. Rename them, delete them, move links between them.
- Write notes on each link in free-form text — shown as a quiet italic blockquote on the card.
- Switch between Gallery view (rich cards with descriptions and notes visible) and List view (compact rows for scanning a long collection).
- Search across titles, descriptions, notes, and URLs from the top bar.
- Export your whole collection as a JSON file, and import it back any time. Perfect for backups or moving to a new machine.

WHY A SIDE PANEL

A side panel stays open alongside whatever you're reading. Save a link without losing your place, flip between folders, skim your notes — all without breaking your flow.

PRIVACY

Linkstash stores your folders, links, and notes locally on your machine using Chrome's built-in storage. Nothing is collected, nothing is transmitted, nothing is shared. The only network requests Linkstash makes are direct fetches to pages you choose to save, for reading their title and description. There is no analytics, no tracking, no third-party code.
