Quick Start

Run your first sync in under a minute.

1. Initialize a workspace

mkdir my-workspace && cd my-workspace
nimbus init

This creates nimbus.config.json, .nimbusignore, and an empty data/ folder (see Project Structure).

2. Set a sync target

nimbus config set target s3://my-bucket/backups

3. Run a sync

nimbus sync
✓ Scanned data/ (128 files, 4.2 MB)
✓ Uploaded 12 changed files
✓ Synced in 1.8s

4. Watch for changes

nimbus watch

watch keeps running in the foreground and syncs automatically whenever files under data/ change. Press Ctrl+C to stop.
