Local Folder Sync

Codebook for macOS and Windows supports an additional sync service called Local Folder. Like the name implies, it allows you to select any folder (that you have write access to) on your local machine and Codebook will use that as a sync endpoint. When you start a sync with Local Folder, Codebook will set that folder up as an encrypted remote similar to how it works with the other remote sync services. This is particularly useful with folders mounted over the network.
