FreeLink

Why FreeLink?

FreeLink takes a different approach to link fields:

• Hybrid storage — Simple links (URL, email, phone) are stored as JSON in the content column. Element links (entries, assets, etc.) get proper rows in a relations table with foreign keys. This gives you referential integrity and reverse lookups without a separate cache table.
• Lightweight models — Links extend yii\base\Model, not Craft's Element class. Less overhead, simpler API.
• Native CP UI — Field UI uses Craft's Garnish library and vanilla JS. No Vue.js, no Alpine.js.
