Automatically synchronize folders on macOS using a lightweight background LaunchDaemon automation tool.
Auto Folder Sync Daemon for macOS is a lightweight automation tool designed for developers, system administrators, and advanced macOS users who need reliable background folder synchronization.
This tool runs as a LaunchDaemon in macOS, meaning it works silently in the background without requiring manual execution. Once configured, it automatically monitors designated directories and synchronizes their contents to target folders.
It is ideal for tasks such as maintaining backups, mirroring project directories, synchronizing development environments, or ensuring that specific folders remain consistent across locations.
The included shell script handles the actual synchronization process while the LaunchDaemon plist ensures the script runs automatically at system intervals or startup. The configuration key file allows customization of folders and sync behavior.
