Introduction

Welcome to CBFS Sync, a suite of components enabling seamless synchronization between local files and cloud storages or other remote repositories.

Add OneDrive-style, bidirectional synchronization to your applications with CBFS Sync. The event-driven design of CBFS Sync provides an intuitive way to handle operations performed on local files and folders. When remote changes are made, use the included methods to notify the local system.

The CBSync component builds on industry-standard technologies, including the Cloud Filter API on Windows, FUSE on Linux, and File Provider on macOS. CBSync reduces development time and improves the user experience by providing a single API. All icons and indicators visible to the user are presented by the operating system, ensuring a native experience.

The choice of the remote storage is entirely up to you. Whether your data are stored on a popular cloud storage service, a custom file server, or anywhere else, CBFS Sync provides a simple API to facilitate synchronization. CBFS Sync handles integration with the OS, while your code is responsible for handling events and transferring data between local and remote systems. Because your code interacts with the backend, you can also decide to make the synchronization one-way or bidirectional.
