HOOKIE Bookmarks

Welcome to HOOKIE Bookmarks README.

HOOKIE is a simple to use platform for storing bookmarks in categories-called 'Hooks'-in a way that makes them easy to find and access them.

Features:

📁 Easy to use collections to store, edit, and access your links.Each Hook can be given a title so that you can organise your bookmarks according to a theme, a project, a function, or whatever you choose.

📑 Tag your links and view similar links in any category.

📎 Notes for both Hooks and Links so you know why you stored them in the first place.

🔖 View all links in alphabetical order.
