About
This community fork of the original Shaarli project by Sébastien Sauvage (now unmaintained) has carried on the work to provide many patches for bug fixes and enhancements in this repository, and will keep maintaining the project for the foreseeable future, while keeping Shaarli simple and efficient.
The original Shaarli instance is still available here (+25000 shaares!)
