cosmicding

cosmicding is a linkding companion app for COSMIC™ Desktop Environment.
It provides an alternative frontend to linkding based on libcosmic.

While cosmicding was desgined for COSMIC™ Desktop Environment, it should be able to run cross-platform.

Features:

• Support multiple linkding instances (or multiple users on the same instance).
• Aggregate bookmarks locally.
• Add/Edit/Remove bookmarks.
• Search bookmarks based on title, URL, tags, desscription, and notes.

cosmicding was tested against linkding releases 1.31.0, and 1.36.0.
