## What it is
Celeste is a GUI file synchronization client built with Rust, GTK4, and Libadwaita that can connect to virtually any cloud provider. It is backed by rclone and supports two-way sync, conflict resolution, exclusion rules, and multiple simultaneous cloud provider connections.

## Use cases
- sync files with dropbox from a gui
- two-way sync a local folder with google drive
- sync files with nextcloud or owncloud on linux
- connect to multiple cloud providers at once
- exclude certain files and folders from syncing
- sync with proton drive or pcloud
- resolve conflicts when files change locally and remotely

## When to choose
- you want a native GTK4 GUI for cloud file sync on Linux
- you need to sync with many different cloud providers through one app
- you want rclone's reliability without using the command line

## When to avoid
- you need a headless or server-side sync solution
- you need sync on Windows or macOS with a native look
- you only use one provider with an official first-party client
