LinkBoard is a secure, animated desktop desk for hoarding, copying, and clearing links — with folders, tags, per-item encryption, drag-and-drop, and a plain-text .todofile format you actually own.
A focused, minimalist toolset — no accounts, no cloud, no telemetry.
Paste a wall of text or a list — every URL is extracted and de-duplicated automatically, with a live counter.
Copy one link, all links, your selection, or “copy the first N” via a prompt. Each link tracks how many times it was copied.
Mark links done — they turn green, strike through, and auto-sink to the bottom. One click (or Undo toast) brings them back.
An unlimited-depth, collapsible tree. Color-code folders and drag links (or whole folders) to reorganize.
Create tags with custom names and colors; filter the current folder by tag with a click.
Encrypt individual folders or links with a separate Lock PIN. Locked items are unreadable on disk until you enter it.
LinkBoard is a simple todo list application
Grab Python 3.9+, then install the two dependencies.
Launch the app and set your master password — this creates your encrypted vault.
Drop in a pile of links and start copying, tagging, and crossing them off.
# 1. install pip install pywebview cryptography # 2. run python app.py # or the launcher ./run.sh
.todofile formatYour data lives in an encrypted .todo vault. Export decrypts it to a clean, human-readable, git-friendly .todofile you can edit and re-import anywhere.
# LinkBoard .todofile % theme: forest % sortDone: true @urgent #ff6b6b @read_later #3ecf8e > All Links - [ ] https://example.com "Homepage" +urgent (copies=3) > Work {color=#5b8cff} - [x] https://done.com "Shipped" +read_later > Clients {color=#3ecf8e lock} - [ ] https://secret.com "NDA" {lock}
The whole vault is encrypted with a key derived from your master password (PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256, 200k rounds → Fernet/AES). A separate Lock PIN adds a second envelope around individually-locked items. Nothing readable ever touches disk without your secret — and there's no cloud, no account, and no recovery backdoor.
