Minimal supports three types of bookmarks that help you save different kinds of information. Each bookmark type is optimized for its specific use case.

​
Bookmark Types

​
Links

Save web URLs with automatic metadata fetching. When you add a link, Minimal automatically:
  • Fetches the page title
  • Downloads the favicon
  • Normalizes the URL format
Simply paste a URL into the input field and press Enter. The bookmark will be created with the page’s metadata.

​
Colors

Store color values for quick reference. Minimal automatically detects color formats including:
  • Hex codes (#3E63DD)
  • RGB values
  • Named colors
When you paste a color value, it displays as a colored square for easy visual identification.

​
Text

Save plain text snippets. Useful for:
  • Quick notes
  • Code snippets
  • Any text you want to reference later
If your input isn’t a URL or color, it’s automatically saved as a text bookmark.

​
Creating Bookmarks

There are multiple ways to add bookmarks:
  1. Main Input: Type or paste into the search/input field at the top
  2. Auto-detection: Minimal automatically determines the bookmark type
  3. Duplicate Handling: Adding the same URL twice updates the existing bookmark instead of creating a duplicate
When you add a duplicate URL, Minimal refreshes the metadata (title and favicon) automatically.

​
Managing Bookmarks

​
Viewing Bookmarks

Bookmarks are displayed in a list view with:
  • Title: The bookmark name or page title
  • Icon: Favicon for links, color swatch for colors, or text indicator
  • Domain: For link bookmarks, shows the hostname
  • Created Date: When the bookmark was added
  • Public Indicator: Globe icon for public bookmarks (when username is set)

​
Editing Bookmarks

Rename any bookmark:
  1. Right-click the bookmark and select “Rename”
  2. Or use the keyboard shortcut ⌘E when hovering
  3. Edit the title inline
  4. Press Enter to save or Escape to cancel

​
Deleting Bookmarks

Remove bookmarks you no longer need:
  1. Right-click and select “Delete”
  2. Or use ⌘⌫ (Cmd+Delete) when hovering
  3. For bulk deletion, use selection mode

​
Refreshing Metadata

For link bookmarks, you can refresh the title and favicon:
  1. Right-click the bookmark
  2. Select “Refetch”
  3. Minimal will fetch the latest metadata from the URL

​
Moving Bookmarks

Move bookmarks between groups:
  1. Right-click a bookmark
  2. Select “Move To…” to see available groups
  3. Choose the destination group
When you move a bookmark, its public/private visibility setting is reset to inherit from the new group.

​
Bulk Operations

​
Selection Mode

Select multiple bookmarks for batch operations:
  1. Right-click any bookmark and select “Select Multiple”
  2. Click bookmarks to toggle selection (checkboxes appear)
  3. Use Space to toggle selection for the focused bookmark
  4. Use ⌘A to select all bookmarks
Available bulk actions:
  • Move: Move all selected bookmarks to another group
  • Delete: Remove all selected bookmarks
  • Copy URLs: Copy all bookmark URLs to clipboard
  • Export: Export selected bookmarks as CSV or JSON
  • Make Public/Private: Change visibility for all selected bookmarks

​
Exiting Selection Mode

Press Escape to exit selection mode and clear all selections.

​
Context Menu

Right-click any bookmark to access:
  • Copy (⌘C) - Copy the URL, color, or text to clipboard
  • Rename (⌘E) - Edit the bookmark title
  • Delete (⌘⌫) - Remove the bookmark
  • Refetch - Update metadata for link bookmarks
  • Make Public/Private - Toggle visibility (when username is set)
  • Move To… - Move to another group
  • Select Multiple - Enter selection mode

​
Automatic Features

​
URL Normalization

All URLs are automatically normalized for consistency:
  • Protocol standardization (http/https)
  • Trailing slash handling
  • Query parameter ordering

​
Metadata Caching

Page metadata (title, favicon) is cached to improve performance:
  • Initial fetch happens when you add the bookmark
  • Use “Refetch” to update cached metadata
  • Favicon images are stored for offline viewing

​
Smart Copying

When you click a bookmark:
  • Links: Opens in a new tab
  • Colors: Copies the color value to clipboard
  • Text: Copies the text to clipboard
A “Copied” indicator appears briefly to confirm the action.
