[!info] This has not yet been release, out of shame. I will do it someday.

A Firefox extension using PKSPKMS to use local Markdown files as bookmarks.

Inspired to make this after reading The best browser bookmarking system is already built-in (HN).

Minimal bookmark Markdown file:

---
tags: Bookmark
publicUrl:
---

Multiple Bookmark tags put the same link in multiple folders.
