Isn't SyncIt made for using it with a server component (currently), thus storing user data out of the user's control and reach?

michielbdejong commented 9 years ago

right, the naming is a bit confusing - we should add the tool called "this local versioning solution" in https://github.com/forbesmyester/SyncIt#overview and not the thing called "the entire SyncIt project" there.

i actually thought they had more backends already implemented, looking back at it you're right, they only give code examples that connect the "this local versioning solution" with their same-origin server.

Still, you can put this in front of dropbox.js. It can help people to not reinvent the wheel there.

Dropbox.js has local stores now, so you can just use their library for that:

By the way, I just had a look at their docs, and there's a ton of stuff for us to think about and be inspired from. E.g. conflict resolution parameters.
