Resilio Sync desktop client for Linux

The official Resilio Sync experience,
finally on Linux.

SyncPilot puts the official Resilio Web UI inside a native desktop window and manages the official rslsync daemon behind it. Every screen is the official one — nothing to re-learn.

SyncPilot — Resilio Sync
The official Resilio Web UI running inside SyncPilot

Official where it matters,
native where it counts.

Folders, peers, transfers, preferences, activation — all of it is the official Resilio interface, version-matched to your rslsync build. SyncPilot adds everything the official Linux story was missing.

Zero interface drift

The window embeds the official Resilio Web UI itself — same screens, same workflow as the Windows and macOS clients, nothing re-implemented to fall behind.

Daemon lifecycle

One-click start and stop, adopts an already-running daemon, and a crash watchdog restarts it with exponential backoff. Optionally keeps running after the app exits.

First-run setup

No rslsync on the machine? SyncPilot offers to download the official binary straight from Resilio's CDN, sha256-verified, into ~/.local/bin.

In-app updates

Every release ships signed updater artifacts. SyncPilot checks the GitHub release and updates itself — no manual re-downloads.

Desktop integration

Tray icon with quick actions, hide-to-tray on close, launch at login via XDG autostart, and a standalone native settings window.

Safe by construction

The Web UI stays on 127.0.0.1 behind an auth-injecting loopback proxy — no login prompts, and the daemon never serves an unauthenticated request.

Up and running in three steps

Same feel as installing the official client on any other platform.

1

Install

Grab the deb, rpm or AppImage for your architecture from the release page.

→
2

Launch

SyncPilot starts the official daemon and hands the window to the official interface. No rslsync yet? One click fetches it.

→
3

Sync

Activate and add folders through the official wizard — exactly like on Windows and macOS.

Your keys and files never leave your machine. SyncPilot generates the daemon's credentials locally, serves the official UI through a loopback-only proxy, and ships no telemetry of its own. All P2P traffic is handled by the official binary.

Get SyncPilot

v0.2.2 — install, launch, done. The official rslsync binary is fetched on first start if missing.

rpm packages for both architectures are on the release page.
