# Steam Deck Syncthing

This script will download a Syncthing build and install it in the user's home
directory. This allows a user to run Syncthing using a SystemD user service, and
keep all necessary files within their home directory. In scenarios where the
traditional directory for installed packages may be overwritten (ie., the Steam
Deck's filesystem), this allows Syncthing to persist through updates, and still
run automatically in the background when the Deck is started. There is no GUI
provided for Syncthing when installed this way. Instead, use the web-UI
available at `localhost:8384`.

## Requirements

- `bash`
- `curl`
- `tar`

## Usage
