## What it is
A Docker-based backup tool for Vaultwarden (formerly bitwarden_rs) that archives the database, config, RSA keys, attachments, and sends directories and uploads them to remote storage via rclone. It also supports restore and backup-result notifications via ping or SMTP email.

## Use cases
- back up vaultwarden database to cloud storage
- schedule automated bitwarden_rs backups in docker
- restore vaultwarden from a backup archive
- back up vaultwarden attachments and sends folders
- get email notifications when vaultwarden backup succeeds or fails
- sync vaultwarden sqlite/postgres/mysql backups with rclone

## When to choose
- you self-host Vaultwarden in Docker and need offsite backups
- you want rclone support for many cloud storage providers
- you need backup notifications via ping or email

## When to avoid
- you run the official Bitwarden server rather than Vaultwarden
- you need a non-Docker backup solution
- you want a GUI-managed backup system
