Stretto is a clean, fast, and reliable synchronization tool for keeping your files and directories in sync across multiple devices. It is an open-source project hosted on GitHub, and in this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Stretto on your Fedora Server.
Before we proceed with the installation, please make sure the following prerequisites are met:
We will start by installing the required packages for Stretto to function correctly. Please execute the following command to do the same:

Next, we will download the Stretto source code from its GitHub repository using the git command. Please execute the following command to download the code:
git clone https://github.com/benkaiser/stretto.git
With the Stretto source code downloaded, we can build and install it on our Fedora server. Please execute the following commands to do the same:

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
