I've got Android P and Windows 10. I want to 2-way sync files between them. I don't want to use a cloud based service. I only want to do local sync with wifi or USB cable. Is Syncthing.net considered the best solution for this? Or are there better solutions for local syncing? I'm happy to pay for a good sync app. Any recommendations much appreciated. Thanks!

It's open source, it's GitHub - I'd trust it. (I back up, but I don't sync, so I don's use it. I just use TWRP to back up my phone's data, then copy the backup folder to the PC. I don't want to back my PC up to my phone.)

Just to clarify I only want to sync some of my pc files to my mobile, not all. Backups are very important for me so I everyday I make a full bootable image of my main hard drive. I back up to multiple separate external discs.

Based on the feedback I've received, looks like Syncthing is best for my needs. I'll try it.
