About
Rclone is an open-source command-line program for managing and syncing files across over 70 cloud storage providers, including Google Drive, S3, Dropbox, and many more. It offers powerful features like encryption, compression, mounting cloud storage as a local disk, and serving files over protocols such as SFTP, FTP, and WebDAV. It is written in Go and is widely used on Linux, Windows, and macOS for backup, migration, and cloud file management tasks.
