WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
A (better?) alternative to sshfs is Syncthing, which works somewhat like a self-hosted Dropbox; it automatically synchronizes a subtree between computers. I've used it for years, with no problems at all. Maybe it won't handle concurrent edits to the same file well, but that's not something I do.
Meanwhile, the hung mount problem in sshfs can be more or less fixed by giving it the right mount options; perhaps something along the lines of https://github.com/Baughn/machine-config/blob/041e2151dffd8e... will be helpful.
Shameless plug: I used sshfs at work for about 3 years, and I made a fork for myself, featuring a persistent cache layer on metadata caches... I really appreciate the project, but I am not confident enough to maintain it.

Yeah, there is this tool: https://techgaun.github.io/active-forks/index.html
I'm really surprised Github doesn't leverage their data for better discovery. Instead you get forks that are second-class citizens and should never be used for active development. For example, they don't get watched by default and their code is not searchable.
