## Description

OpenSave keeps your game progress synchronized across every computer and handheld you own. It automatically locates save folders for over 20,000 titles from Steam, emulators, store launchers, and repack releases. When a game writes a file, only the altered data chunks move to your other machines — either directly on the same network or via a relay you control. Each change becomes a numbered snapshot, letting you restore an entire save or just one file, and even maintain separate playthroughs on different branches. When two devices edit the same save offline, the software spots the divergence using shared history and asks which version to preserve. You can also mirror snapshots to cloud storage providers or a local NAS. The program is a single Go executable with a built-in interface, plus a headless daemon and CLI for servers. All information stays in a local SQLite database and snapshot archives. The relay is stateless, keeps no data, and since version 2.4.0 forwards only end-to-end encrypted traffic.
