- 🎛️ **whitelist control** — only save links from sites you explicitly approve.
- 📂 **smart stash** — search, filter, and organize your link archive.
- 📤 **easy export** — save as txt, json, or csv whenever you want.
- ⚡ **lightweight** — only 997 KB, minimal background footprint, built for speed.
### installation
#### extension store
the easiest way is through the chrome web store:
[**→ add magneto to chrome**](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/magneto/your-extension-id) (not yet approved)
requires **chrome 114+**.
*(firefox & edge support coming soon)*
#### 🛠 manual install
1. [download the latest release](https://github.com/gergogyulai/magneto/releases)
2. unzip it
3. open `chrome://extensions/`
4. enable **developer mode**
5. click **load unpacked** → select the magneto folder
### development
magneto is built with **vite + svelte + typescript**.
you’ll need **bun** (or node.js 22+).
```bash
git clone https://github.com/gergogyulai/magneto.git
cd magneto
bun i
bun run dev
```
then load the extension from the `magneto/build` folder in `chrome://extensions/`.
to build manually:
```bash
bun run build
bun run zip
```
### ethics
magneto is a **personal archiving tool**.
it never sends or shares your data, and it takes **zero responsibility** for what you do with it.
**you control what’s collected, and you own your data.**
