Resource Hub — Your Personal Resource Management Platform

I built Resource Hub to solve a problem I faced personally: managing links scattered across WhatsApp chats, browser bookmarks, notes apps, and multiple platforms. Every time I needed a resource I had saved weeks ago, I was hunting across five different places to find it. Resource Hub brings everything into one centralized place.

The Problem

Most of us save resources the same way — drop a link in a WhatsApp chat, star a tweet, bookmark a tab, paste it in a notes app. It works in the moment. Two weeks later, finding that link again is a different story. The resource exists somewhere, but where exactly is anyone's guess.

The tools that exist either do too much (Notion, Obsidian) or too little (Linktree, plain bookmarks). There was no focused, clean tool for simply saving, organizing, and sharing resources.

What Resource Hub Does

Resource Hub is a personal resource management platform where you can save, organize, and share links and documents — all in one place.

Core features:

• Resource Management

Save any link as a resource with a name and URL. That's it — no friction, no mandatory fields to fill before you can save something. Description, tags, and other metadata can be added later when you want to organize. Resources are private by default.

• Document Management

Upload and manage documents alongside your resources. Files are stored securely using MinIO object storage with pre-signed URLs for direct, efficient uploads.

• Collections

Group resources into named collections for better organization. Collections support:

- Custom item statuses (define up to 5 values like "To Read", "Reading", "Done") — making collections reusable for reading lists, project trackers, outreach management, and more

- Public or private visibility — share a collection with anyone or keep it for yourself

- Drag-and-drop reordering of items

- Clean slug-based URLs: resources.lakshaymahajan.com/collections/username/collection-name

• Bookmarking

Save other users' public resources to your personal collection for later reference.

• Explore Page

Browse public resources shared by other users on the platform.

Resource Hub started as a second-year college project I built but barely used. The problem wasn't the idea — it was too many steps to save a resource. Simplifying the capture flow to just two fields (name and URL) changed everything. It's now the tool I use daily.

Still actively building it — every feature either solves a problem I personally ran into or came from using the product and noticing friction.
