# BookDAV

> Keep your Firefox bookmarks in sync across every machine you control—desktop, laptop, or lab box—without handing data to a third-party service. Point the extension at your WebDAV endpoint, pick the folder scope you want, and BookDAV handles the rest.

## Description

Why homelab users choose BookDAV
<ul><li><strong>Self-hosted storage</strong> – Store bookmark data on Nextcloud, nginx-dav, Apache, or any WebDAV‑capable appliance you already run.</li><li><strong>Granular scope control</strong> – Sync your entire library, limit the job to the dedicated BookDAV folder, or select any folder with the built-in picker.</li><li><strong>Background scheduling</strong> – Automatic syncs on a configurable interval, plus one-click manual syncs from the toolbar.</li><li><strong>Data guardrails</strong> – Snapshot hashing and size checks refuse downloads that would wipe out most of your bookmarks.</li><li><strong>Unified status panel</strong> – View the last action, last sync time, and WebDAV connection health directly in the popup.</li><li><strong>No telemetry</strong> – BookDAV collects no usage, health, or crash data. Credentials remain local to your browser profile.</li></ul>

Quick setup
<ol><li>Ensure your WebDAV server (Nextcloud, nginx, Apache, etc.) is reachable from each browser.</li><li>Install BookDAV and open the <strong>Options</strong> page.</li><li>Enter the WebDAV URL, remote JSON path, and credentials (if required).</li><li>Choose the bookmark scope and sync interval that suit your workflow.</li><li>Trigger a <strong>Sync now</strong> to seed your remote snapshot, then let the scheduled jobs keep every device aligned.</li></ol>
Take back control of your bookmarks—BookDAV is built for people who already run their own services and want a sync solution to match.
