# woomarks (AT Protocol Edition)
woomarks is an app that lets you save bookmarks to your AT Protocol Personal Data Server (PDS). 

![screenshot](screenshot.png)

This version stores bookmarks directly on the AT Protocol network using a custom lexicon, making your bookmarks portable across the decentralized web.



## Features
- Add/Delete bookmarks stored on AT Protocol
- Search and filter by tags
- Decentralized storage on your Personal Data Server
- Bookmarklet support for easy saving
- Responsive design with dynamic colors and fonts
- No backend server needed - connects directly to AT Protocol
- Open lexicon format for interoperability

## Prerequisites
- An AT Protocol account (e.g., Bluesky account)
- A Personal Data Server (PDS) that supports custom lexicons

## AT Protocol Integration
This app uses the standard `community.lexicon.bookmarks.bookmark` lexicon from [lexicon.community](https://github.com/lexicon-community/lexicon) to store bookmark records on your PDS. Each bookmark contains:
- URI (required) - The bookmarked URL
- Title (optional) - The title of the bookmarked page
- Tags (optional array) - Organizational tags
- Creation timestamp

Using the community standard lexicon means your bookmarks are:
- Interoperable with other AT Protocol bookmark apps
- Portable across different implementations
- Following established community standards
- Owned and controlled by you on your PDS

## Installation

2. **Login with AT Protocol**
   - Open the app in your browser

## Bookmarklet Setup
Create a bookmarklet for easy saving:
- Create a new bookmark in your browser
- Set the name to "Save to woomarks"
- Use this as the URL:
```javascript
javascript:(function(){
const url = encodeURIComponent(window.location.href);
const title = encodeURIComponent(document.title);
window.open(`https://YOURDOMAINHERE.com/?title=${title}&url=${url}`, '_blank');
})();
```


## Design
 This design is inspired by Pocket's UI, which was very good for showing a list of articles to read later. Native bookmarking feels more utilitarian, suited for recurrent links, woomarks is more suited for read later links.

## Philosophy
I had all my bookmarks in Pocket and it's shutting down. Same thing happened to del.icio.us. So I decided to keep the web cool and decentralized by building on AT Protocol. Now your bookmarks live on a decentralized network that you control, not in some company's database that might disappear.
