Nori

Android, iOS, desktop, and extension

Nori is an open-source bookmark manager and launcher designed for fast everyday access across mobile devices, desktop computers, and web browsers.

Instead of burying links inside deep browser folder trees or closed ecosystems, Nori organizes your bookmarks into clean, focused lists with instant launching, search, rich card previews, and share sheet integration.

First Run

Section titled “First Run”

A sensible first setup is:

  1. Create a few lists for your common link categories (e.g. Daily, Tools, Reading, Work).
  2. Add your primary go-to links or import existing bookmarks from your browser HTML export.
  3. Test launching a bookmark to confirm your default browser opens links as expected.
  4. Try sharing a webpage from your mobile browser into Nori using the system share menu.
  5. Customize appearance settings, such as dark mode or your preferred accent color.

How It Works

Section titled “How It Works”

Nori decouples your bookmark collection from specific browser engines:

  • On Android, bookmarks open through Custom Tabs via expo-web-browser or hand off directly to your default browser app.
  • On iOS, bookmarks open via the native browser sheet or the system default browser.
  • On desktop and extension, bookmarks open directly in your active browser tabs.

This approach ensures you always browse with your preferred ad blockers, logins, and browser profiles intact, while keeping all your links organized in one fast, searchable launcher.
