File synchronisation
Synchronisation is not a cloud: devices exchange files directly and no server holds the master copy. That makes it the lightest way to keep a laptop and a phone in step — and the one where a deletion travels as fast as an edit, so versioning and backups matter.

Every page explains what the hosted service does and which recipes cover the same job.
Guides with these applications
- A home server that earns its keepSix recipes that turn a spare machine into something the household actually uses: a password vault, network-wide filtering, file sync, uptime checks and a media library.
- Everything that fits into 1 GB of RAMThe recipes that run comfortably on the cheapest VPS or an old thin client — what they cost in memory, and where the number stops being the whole story.
- What a Raspberry Pi can actually runRecipes with 32-bit ARM images and a memory budget a Pi can meet — plus the two hardware decisions that matter more than the application you pick.
- Services that never need a public addressRecipes designed to stay on the local network: what they give up by not being published, and why that is usually the safer trade.
- A family cloud without the subscriptionFiles, photos and shared links for a household — three ways to build it, and the one thing all of them require you to decide first.
