+## About rclone {#about}
+
+Rclone is a command line tool to manage files on cloud storage. It is
+a feature rich alternative to cloud vendor's web storage
+interfaces. [Over 40 cloud storage products](#providers) are supported
+by rclone including S3 object stores, business & consumer file storage
+services, as well as standard transfer protocols.
+
+Rclone is a powerful tool being the cloud storage equivalent to the
+unix commands rsync, cp, mv, mount, ls, ncdu, tree, rm, and
+cat. Rclone's familiar syntax includes shell pipeline support, and
+`--dry-run` protection. It can be used at the command line, in scripts
+or via its [API](/rc).
+
+Rclone really cares about your data. It preserves your timestamps and
+verifies your data at all times. Transfers over limited bandwidth;
+intermittent connections, or subject to quota can be restarted, from
+the last good file transferred. You can
+[check](/commands/rclone_check/) the integrity of your files. Where
+possible, rclone employs server side transfers to minimise local
+bandwidth use and can transfer from one provider to another without
+using your local disk.
+
+Virtual backends can wrap local and cloud file systems to apply
+[encryption](/crypt/),
+[caching](/cache/),
+[chunking](/chunker/) and
+[joining](/union/).
+
+Rclone can [mount](/commands/rclone_mount/) any local, cloud or
+virtual filesystem so it will appear as a local disk on your Windows,
+macOS, linux or FreeBSD computer. Rclone can also serve these over
+[SFTP](/commands/rclone_serve_sftp/),
+[HTTP](/commands/rclone_serve_http/),
+[WebDAV](/commands/rclone_serve_webdav/),
+[FTP](/commands/rclone_serve_ftp/) and
+[DLNA](/commands/rclone_serve_dlna/).
+
+Rclone is mature, open source software originally inspired by
+rsync. It is written in [Go](https://golang.org) and is energetically
+maintained, and supported by a welcoming community with a wide
+experience of varied use cases. Official repos such as Ubuntu, Debian,
+Brew, Chocolatey include rclone. For the latest version [download from
+rclone.org](/downloads/) is recommended.
+
+Rclone is widely used on Linux, Windows and Mac. Third party
+developers have built innovative backup, restore, GUI and business
+process solutions using the rclone command line or API.
+
+Let rclone do the heavy lifting of communicating with cloud cloud
+storage so you can concentrate on your problems.
+
+## What is rclone for {#what}
+
+Rclone is great for:-
+
+- Backup and encryption of files to cloud storage
+- Restore and decryption of files from cloud storage
+- Mirroring cloud data to other cloud services or locally
+- Migration of data to cloud, or between cloud storage vendors
+- Mounting multiple, encrypted, cached or diverse cloud storage
+- Union file systems presenting multiple local and/or cloud file systems
+- Analysing file data held on cloud storage
+
+## Features {#features}
+
+- On all transfers
+ - MD5, SHA1 hashes checked at all times for file integrity
+ - Timestamps preserved on files
+ - Operations can be restarted at any time
+ - Can sync to and from network, eg two different cloud accounts
+ - multi-threaded downloads to local disk
+- [Copy](/commands/rclone_copy/) new or changed files to cloud storage
+- [Sync](/commands/rclone_sync/) (one way) to make a directory identical
+- [Move](/commands/rclone_move/) move files to cloud storage deleting the local after verification
+- [Check](/commands/rclone_check/) check hashes and for missing/extra files
+- [Mount](/commands/rclone_mount/) your cloud storage as a network disk
+- [Serve](/commands/rclone_serve/) local or remote files over [HTTP](/commands/rclone_serve_http/)/[WebDav](/commands/rclone_serve_webdav/)/[FTP](/commands/rclone_serve_ftp/)/[SFTP](/commands/rclone_serve_sftp/)/[dlna](/commands/rclone_serve_dlna/)
+- Experimental [Web based GUI](/gui/)

+exhaustive list as there are many more that support standard protocols

+# <i class="fa fa-heart heart"></i> Donations to the rclone project
-Rclone is a pure open source for love-not-money project. However I've
-had requests for a donation page and coding rclone does take me away
-from something else I love - my wonderful wife.
+We're very pleased to receive donations, which allow us to continue
+developing rclone as free open source software.
-So if you would like to send a donation, I will use it to buy flowers
-(and other pretty things) for her which will make her very happy.
+Donations from individuals that rclone has helped make us very happy.
+Donations from companies that use rclone or bundle it in their
+products are very welcome too as are donations from cloud providers
+rclone supports.
-### New
+Maintaining rclone is a lot of work - easily a **full time
+job**. Nothing stands still in the world of cloud storage! We love
+doing the work and we'd like to spend more time doing it - your
+support helps make that possible.
