Author of Mutagen here, happy to answer any questions you might have, whether it's about its use with Docker, SSH, its historical integration into Docker Desktop, or its related Mutagen Compose[0][1] project.

We use Mutagen for Garden's hot reloading mechanism. (Garden is a dev tool for K8s and hot reloading enables users to sync changes directly to a prod like dev environment as opposed to doing a rebuild and re-deploy).
It's a really a fantastic piece of technology and completely transformed the whole experience (we were using good 'ol rsync before). In particular it works seamlessly across platforms.
If anyone's interested in how we use it, it's here: https://github.com/garden-io/garden/blob/master/core/src/plu...
Huh! This sounds a lot like my hobby project to real-time sync files between my laptop & desktop:

But dressed up to work with docker + "just" :-) being a professional/polished product, which is impressive. Neat!
Hi Jacob. I am one of the founders of Okteto (https://okteto.com/), a remote development platform for Compose and Kubernetes applications. We use Syncthing to sync code between the developer laptop and pods running in Kubernetes. I would love to know your thoughts on the strengths and weak points of Mutagen vs Syncthing for this use case.
