SeedSync is a tool to sync files from a remote Linux server (like your seedbox) to your local machine. It uses LFTP to transfer files fast!
Note: This is a modernized fork of ipsingh06/seedsync with updated dependencies and Docker-only deployment.
- Built on top of LFTP, the fastest file transfer program
- Web UI - track and control your transfers from anywhere
- Automatically extract your files after sync
- Auto-Queue - only sync the files you want based on pattern matching
- Delete local and remote files easily
- Fully open source!
