# Syncthing and Remote File Management
|

|

> What is [syncthing](https://syncthing.net/)?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's a free and open source project that basically keeps your files synchronized across multiple devices.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It woks like so(in my setup):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Listen Server => Gets folders and things shared with it
|
||||||
|
PC => usually uploads stuff to the listen server
|
||||||
|
Phone => usually just pulls down updates from the listen server
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I personally use Syncthing to keep my ever growing music library and Book/Papers collection up to date on my phone and PC.

> Can you cut out the middle man by removing that server?
|
||||||
|
Yes but I'm lazy and this give me the option of running syncthing on my laptop and pull down changes from anywhere without much hassle.

> Where do yo host this listen server?
|
||||||
|
For hosting I use [IONOS](https://www.ionos.com/) since VPS's only cost 2 USD a month. Currently it's running Debian 10 Buster.
