Syncthing¶

Syncthing is a continuous file synchronization program. It synchronizes files between two or more computers in real time, safely protected from prying eyes. Your data is your data alone and you deserve to choose where it is stored, whether it is shared with some third party, and how it's transmitted over the internet.

Forget about using propietary solutions and take control of your data. Syncthing is an open source solution for synchronizing your data in a p2p way.
