# Bookmarking
Everything in Karakeep starts as a bookmark. Here’s how the different types work and how to keep your home view tidy with favourites and archive.
## Favourites
- Star bookmarks you like so they sit in their own dedicated favourites view for quick return visits.
- Handy for saved gems you want to re-open often like articles you enjoyed, references you come back to, or things worth sharing.
## Archiving
- Archive hides a bookmark from the homepage without deleting it.
- Archived items stay searchable and keep all tags, highlights, and attachments.
- Ideal for achieving inbox-zero style for your homepage.
## Bookmark types
- **Links**: URLs saved from the web or extension. Karakeep grabs metadata, previews, screenshots, and archives when configured.
- **Text**: Quick notes or snippets you paste in. Great for ideas, quotes, or saving context alongside links.
- **Media**: Images or PDFs you want to save for later. Karakeep automatically extracts content out of those files and makes them searchable.
## Notes
- Attach personal notes to any bookmark to capture context, reminders, or next steps.
- Notes live with the bookmark and are searchable, so you can recall why something mattered.
## Highlights
- Save quotes, summaries, or TODOs while reading.
- Highlights show up in the bookmark detail view/reader and are searchable, so you can jump straight to the key ideas.
## Attachments
- Store extra context alongside a bookmark: screenshots, page captures, videos, and files you upload.
- **Screenshots & archives**: fallback when the original page changes or disappear.
- **Uploaded files**: keep PDFs, notes, or supporting assets right with the link.
- Manage attachments from the bookmark detail view: upload, download, or detach as needed.
