JW Sync has a new home — jwsync.org (and now on GitHub)

[Codyroberto]

 

Hi everyone,

 

A quick update — and first of all, a big thank you to everyone here who has been using JW Sync and sharing feedback, questions, and bug reports. It really has shaped where this little project is going.

 

I'm happy to share that JW Sync now has its own proper home at ** www.jwsync.org. **.

 

I paid for a real domain rather than leaving things on a free hosting URL. The reasons were:

 

- **More permanent** — no risk of the link disappearing or changing one day.

- **More secure** — proper SSL, and a domain that's clearly the one you'd expect.

- **Easier to remember and share** — jwsync.org is a lot simpler than the old address.

 

The old link will still keep working for a while, but please switch over to jwsync.org going forward.

 

The other thing I wanted to share is that the whole project is now openly on GitHub:

 

https://github.com/j-syncer/Jw-sync-

 

A few reasons for putting it all out in the open:

 

- **Privacy you can verify.** The whole premise of JW Sync has always been that nothing ever leaves your device — every merge happens privately in your browser. With the code public, you (or anyone you trust who reads code) can actually check that for yourself. You don't have to take my word for it anymore.

 

- **Help and contributions.** If you happen to have some development experience and notice something that could be improved, or want to suggest a feature, you're warmly welcome to open an issue or share a suggestion. Anyone who'd like to help out is welcome.

 

- **Permanence.** Even if I one day stepped away, the code stays available so someone else could pick it up and keep it going.

 

Please do keep an eye on the forum as things develop, and as always, let me know if you run into any problems or have ideas. Every bit of feedback so far has shaped this tool for the better — I'm genuinely thankful for each one.

 

Warm regards

I will still be using JW sink alpha for all my alpha and beta testing. Just to make sure I don't break the usability of the actual main site, I want to make sure it's Rock solid. So whenever you are in a hurry rushing towards a meeting, you don't have to worry about the main site not doing its basic function.
