Adding your profile is just creating a small JSON file, but self-hosting requires familiarity with deploying JavaScript web apps.

The README does not mention a specific license, so the terms of use are unclear.

in plain english

LinkFree gives you a single shareable link that houses all your other links, your website, social profiles, portfolio, projects, anything you want people to find. It's a free, open-source alternative to services like Linktree, meaning you don't pay a subscription and you control your own data. To add your profile, you create a small JSON file (essentially a structured text file) containing your name, a short bio, your avatar, and a list of links with labels and icons. The project pulls your avatar automatically from your GitHub profile. Once your file is merged and the site is deployed, your page goes live at a URL like linkfree.eddiehub.io/yourusername. You can also track career milestones on your page, things like "Started Freelancing" with dates and descriptions. This is ideal for creators, developers, and freelancers who want a simple landing page without building a full website. A YouTuber could put one link in their video description that leads to a page with links to their Twitter, Patreon, and latest video. A job seeker could share a single link that points to their GitHub, LinkedIn, and portfolio site. It's also designed as a community project, so contributors can improve the codebase itself, not just add their own profile. One thing worth noting: the project is currently migrating from React to Next.js, so feature contributions should target the nextjs branch. There's also a single-user mode if you want to host the app yourself for just your own links rather than joining the community site. The README doesn't go into detail on deployment specifics, so you'd need some familiarity with hosting JavaScript web apps to self-host. The project offers a one-click cloud setup through Gitpod, which lets you skip local installation entirely and start coding from your browser.
