FoldersSynchronizer vs. JavaScript vs. Python vs. SureSync Comparison Chart

FoldersSynchronizer is a nifty and popular utility for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) which synchronizes and backs-up files, folders and disks. You can choose one or more pairs of files, folders or disks then FS will synchronize or backup those exactly. FS lets you organize your sync and backup on several sessions you can save to a file for a later reuse. On each session you can apply special options like Timers, Multiple pairs of folders, Filters, Exclude Items, Auto-Mount local and remote volumes, launch your own AppleScripts, set how to resolve Conflicts, execute an incremental or an exact copy, include locked files... FS can display a preview panel listing all the files FS is going to copy, replace and delete. FS can save a log file or send it to a custom email address, and it can sync and automatically quit the application… FoldersSynchronizer has been successfully tested on macOS 14 Sonoma. Previous versions for previous macOSs, for Intel and PPC are available too.

The core of extensible programming is defining functions. Python allows mandatory and optional arguments, keyword arguments, and even arbitrary argument lists. Whether you're new to programming or an experienced developer, it's easy to learn and use Python. Python can be easy to pick up whether you're a first-time programmer or you're experienced with other languages. The following pages are a useful first step to get on your way to writing programs with Python! The community hosts conferences and meetups to collaborate on code, and much more. Python's documentation will help you along the way, and the mailing lists will keep you in touch. The Python Package Index (PyPI) hosts thousands of third-party modules for Python. Both Python's standard library and the community-contributed modules allow for endless possibilities.
