This guide walks you through deploying Linkwarden with Docker and Traefik, configuring it for SSL, and accessing it from anywhere securely.

Why Use Linkwarden?

• Save links with titles, tags, notes, and screenshots
• Self-hosted = complete data privacy
• Access anywhere with SSL
• Fast full-text search
• Multi-user support
• Automatic page archiving (via browser extension)

Deployment with Docker Compose

Create a directory:

mkdir -p ~/linkwarden && cd ~/linkwarden

Then create a docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3.9'
services:
  linkwarden:
    image: ghcr.io/linkwarden/linkwarden:latest
    container_name: linkwarden
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@db:5432/linkwarden
    depends_on:
      - db
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    volumes:
      - ./data:/data

  db:
    image: postgres:15
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_DB=linkwarden
      - POSTGRES_USER=user
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=pass
    volumes:
      - ./pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data

Setup & Access

1. Start containers:

docker compose up -d

2. Access via http://your-server-ip:3000
3. Register an account
4. (Optional) Install the Linkwarden Chrome/Firefox extension

Securing with HTTPS via Traefik

If you’re already using Traefik (e.g., for other Docker apps), add a label block to your service:

labels:
  - "traefik.enable=true"
  - "traefik.http.routers.linkwarden.rule=Host(`links.yourdomain.com`)"
  - "traefik.http.routers.linkwarden.entrypoints=websecure"
  - "traefik.http.routers.linkwarden.tls.certresolver=myresolver"

Use Cases

• Personal bookmarking vault
• Team research archive
• Curated collection of articles, videos, and PDFs
• Save content offline for future reference

Tips & Extras

• Use Plausible or Umami to self-host stats
• Integrate with Nginx Proxy Manager
• Enable auto backups with borg or restic
• Add Redis for performance boost

Conclusion

Linkwarden is a powerful, minimalist bookmark manager that respects your privacy and puts you in control. It’s fast, Docker-friendly, and actively maintained by the open-source community. If you’re serious about decluttering your digital brain — host your own Linkwarden server and keep your internet organized for good.
