About Syncloud

Syncloud is an open-source platform that turns your own hardware into a personal cloud with an app store and automatic updates for apps such as Nextcloud, Jellyfin, Bitwarden and Paperless. It provides HTTPS, a domain name and remote access without a public IP, and suits home users who want popular self-hosted apps running at home with consumer-style setup and maintenance.
