instructions.md

Install the necessary packages:

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates
curl -s https://syncthing.net/release-key.txt | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://apt.syncthing.net/ syncthing stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/syncthing.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install syncthing
sudo apt-get install git

Start syncthing once:

syncthing

In /home/USER/.config/syncthing/config.xml, change (set GUI password!):

Restart:

sudo reboot

Download missing systemd service files:

git clone https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing
cd syncthing/etc/linux-systemd/system
sudo mv [email protected] /etc/systemd/system/[email protected]

Enable and start service (replace USER with username):
