Linkidex – save and sort the URLs you care about
Hi HN! My name is David ([email protected]) and I am the author of Linkidex (www.linkidex.com)! My goal is to make bookmarks better. I built Linkidex because I was getting overwhelmed by the number of things I had to keep track of on the internet during my day to day job. Constantly needing to re-find various wikis or jira epics or project proposals or whatever was eating into my day. I was using a chrome extension to manage urls, but the extension was getting unwieldy as my list of “important URLs” grew and I started looking for alternatives. There are a few really cool bookmark managers…
In plain words
Linkidex is a bookmark manager that helps users save and organize URLs across browsers and devices. Designed for professionals who work with multiple links like wikis, project proposals, and documentation, it lets users quickly search and retrieve frequently-needed URLs. The tool focuses on simplifying URL management for people overwhelmed by scattered bookmarks during their daily work.

Hi HN! My name is David ([email protected]) and I am the author of Linkidex (www.linkidex.com)! My goal is to make bookmarks better. I built Linkidex because I was getting overwhelmed by the number of things I had to keep track of on the internet during my day to day job. Constantly needing to re-find various wikis or jira epics or project proposals or whatever was eating into my day. I was using a chrome extension to manage urls, but the extension was getting unwieldy as my list of “important URLs” grew and I started looking for alternatives. There are a few really cool bookmark managers out there, but I wasn’t satisfied with what I saw. Regular bookmarks don’t cut it either for me as I need something that works across browsers and devices. Thus, Linkidex was born. The most basic idea with Linkidex is that you can go to Linkidex and just start typing. Linkidex will search across your link titles, link urls, categories, and tags all at once. Click the result you are looking for and it opens in a new tab. If you want to scope your search by specific categories or tags you can do that too. Linkidex is a progressive web application. It (mostly) works offline and it can be downloaded to your phone and act like a native app without requiring you to grant it any permissions. The back end is rails, and the front end is React, Typescript and GraphQL. Security wise it is deployed to AWS. The database and back end are all wrapped up in a VPC. The front end supports 2 factor and WebAuthn, so you can use a yubikey or your device's fingerprint reader as your second factor. Linkidex can import and export bookmarks to and from your favorite browser. That said, I’ve limited the number of links / categories / tags a given user can have for now on Linkidex to prevent anything insane from happening. All feedback / feature requests / complaints / whatever welcome. Thanks for checking out Linkidex!

Hey HN, I 3d scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid / Khufu's pyramid for the Giza Project this summer and just finished the guided version to share. Would love feedback and/or problems you encounter. I used both a Leica BLK 360 and Matterport Pro 2 to do the scanning and the Matterport SDK for the web viewer. Matterport's web display with Three.js has been the most accessible to a wide audience in the past (previous iterations are in Unity and Unreal, but difficult to download over slower connections). I've been interviewing social studies teachers around the 6th grade level to…

APIs are a little like the open road—always waiting, full of opportunity, but hardly utilized. So here’s America, composed of several APIs that paint a vivid, real-time picture of a good old-fashioned road trip. Get local classifieds and photos. Tune into local radio stations. Talk wit other drivers. And more. Exploring the country by car was an invaluable experience for me during my time in the states. I’ve since moved to Barcelona, and find myself missing the territory. This is my attempt at recreating the magic.
