Syncing IntelliJ projects between different computers

Question

I work on multiple projects from 3 different computers all using IntelliJ. I want the projects to be synced on all platforms. How can I do this?

Answer 1

Appart from VCS mentioned in other answers/comments - this is of course must-have - try for example gitHub..

I use syncThing, which has a benefit (drawback for somebody), that it does not use any cloud stora-ge (it uses p2p), which is a benefit for me, because I can sync very quickly on home network without any middleman. It also works through the internet (but you are limited by the bandwidth of course). It has lot of features, including include/exclude rules (there need to be some exclusions to omit some intelliJ config related specific environment or the .git folder).

This way I can sync even some work-in-progress which I dont want to commit yet, or some config files ignored by VCS.
