Readeck
Sign in to saveReadeck is a free server application for saving links to read later ("read-it later"). It allows for the management and reading of articles away from their original sites, in a standardised page layout with stripped-back content. Articles can be organised by tags, marked as favourites, archived, and also followed via RSS feed and OPDS. Exporting to e-book format is also possible. It is compatible with existing services such as Pocket, Readability, Instapaper, and Wallabag.

Source code
Readeck is a simple web application that lets you save the precious readable content of web pages you like and want to keep forever. See it as a bookmark manager and a read later tool. Like a page you're reading? Paste the link in Readeck and you're done! Highlight and annotate the important content of your bookmarks to easily find it later. Want to keep something for later while browsing? No need to copy and paste a link. Install the browser extension and save bookmarks in one click! For Mozilla Firefox For Google Chrome More Information and Source Code What's better than reading your collected articles on your e-reader? You can export any article to an e-book file (EPUB). You can even export a collection to a single book! On top of that, you can directly access Readeck's catalog and collections from your e-reader if it supports OPDS. Readeck is a modern take on so-called boring, but proven, technology pieces. It guarantees very quick response times and a smooth user experience. Will this article you like be online next year? In 10 year? Maybe not; maybe it's all gone, text and images. For this reason, and for your privacy, text and images are all stored in your Readeck instance the moment you save a link. Done reading this promotional content? Good! Want to try Readeck on your laptop or a server? Even better! Readeck is distributed as a single binary file. Using it is almost as easy as a container. Create a new directory Download the file matching your system from the last release Make this file executable Launch Readeck with the serve argument, for example: Installing from source can be useful to try out unreleased Readeck versions, or to set up a development environment for contributing code. For more information, see the development documentation. If you'd like to build your own container image so you can get the most recent changes and/or help with testing, we provide a simple procedure. If you already know how to deploy containers on a server, installing Readeck for production should be quite straightforward. As for deploying to Linux servers with systemd and a reverse proxy, see the deployment guide. Readeck was born out of frustration (and COVID lock-downs) from the tools that don't save everything related to the saved content, primarily images. This key principle guided every step of Readeck development. Readeck has a very simple database schema with a few tables (and a bit of clever JSON fields here and there). The recommended database engine is SQLite for most installations. Readeck is written in Go and all its content is rendered server side with some interactivity brought by Stimulus and Turbo. This has proven to be a great combination when performance really matters. Readeck's simple stack means that the barrier to entry is relatively low when it comes to contributing to the Readeck project. Contributions are welcome by filing issues, participating in community discussions, submitting translations, and proposing changes to the source code. For more information, see the documentation on contributing.
