  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • syncthing-android

    Wrapper of syncthing for Android.

  • For a lot of simple use cases that don't need automatic conflict resolution you could just share files using Syncthing. Then the only dependency on external infrastructure is the Syncthing STUN server if one or both peers is behind a NAT.

    Syncthing is open and uses the Mozilla Public License: https://syncthing.net/

  • magic-wormhole

    get things from one computer to another, safely

  • Magic Wormhole comes close, I think: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole

    Syncthing is painless, with available local network detection of other clients. If either device has a webcam, the QR codes in the web UI make it quite quick to have a synchronized folder between two systems.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
