Option 1: Install from PyPI (requires Python 3.6+)
pip install syncrypt
This requires the snappy-c library in order to build the
python-snappy dependency. In Ubuntu,
you can install it with the APT package libsnappy-dev. In OS X, you can
install it with brew install snappy.
Option 2: Download one of the packages on our releases page.
Option 3: Install latest development version from source:
pip install git+https://github.com/syncrypt/client
The syncrypt executable is the command line interface for Syncrypt. You
can login to syncrypt so that you won't have to enter your login for every
command you issue.

This will ask for the email and the password of your Syncrypt account. If you do not have an account yet, please sign up for our closed alpha mailing list and we will send you an invite.
You can now initialize an arbitary directory as a vault. Simply change into
