Folder Sharing

Folder sharing is the process of sharing specific local folders with selected devices in your Syncthing network. You can configure whether a folder should only receive, only send, or synchronize bidirectionally. This flexibility allows you to set up different synchronization behaviors for various folders and devices according to your needs.
