Bookmarks Backup

Have you ever exported your bookmarks, only for some of them to break when importing them again?

bookmarks.backup.mp4

Looking at you Firefox, only allowing HTML as a Bookmarks export format...

Well this is the extension for you - exports your bookmarks in a state-of-the-art format, and easily import them later safely.

How It's Made

Tech Used: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WebExtensions API & Polyfill

This extension built off the WebExtensions API generates a tree of all your bookmarks & folders, allowing you to select which to export - additionally allowing you to import a bookmarks.json file previously generated by this extension.

Optimizations

Handling of extremely long bookmark titles along with a high amount of bookmarks/folders can be tedious, and a number of folders containing only other folders can be collapsed to save space.

Lessons Learned

Learning both the way Firefox exports bookmarks in raw HTML, and how to use the WebExtensions API & Polyfills to create a cross-browser extension was a great experience.
