Syncthing is a continuous file synchronization open source software, that synchronizes files between two or more computers on a network or WAN. Your data is as important to you as anything else, hence you deserve to choose where it is stored, if it is shared with some third party and how it’s transmitted over the Internet. Before we proceed on how to install Syncthing on Ubuntu, lets take a quick look at what it offers.
