Use Cloudflare R2 to Sync infolio: Object Storage Sync for a Local-First Workspace
Learn when Cloudflare R2 makes sense as an infolio custom sync source for local-first knowledge work, developer notes, encrypted vaults, and cross-platform devices.
Best for
- Indie developers already using Cloudflare.
- Users who want object storage sync under their own account.
- Knowledge bases spanning macOS, iOS/iPadOS, and Android, with Windows planned later.
Setup notes
- Prepare a dedicated R2 bucket.
- Use dedicated credentials for infolio sync.
- Store bucket names, account details, and recovery notes safely.
Privacy boundary
- R2 is the storage layer, not automatic content encryption for every record.
- Sensitive records should be stored in infolio encrypted vaults.
- Access credentials should not be scattered across project notes.
R2 fits Cloudflare-native workflows
If your domains, Workers, Pages, or other projects already live on Cloudflare, R2 can reduce the number of cloud platforms you need to manage.
That makes sense for indie developers who want project notes, deployment records, whiteboard plans, and private configuration references in one local-first workspace.
The value of custom sync is choice
Many note apps offer only a vendor sync service. infolio custom sync sources let you choose a storage layer you trust and manage yourself.
Not everyone needs R2. Official cloud is simpler for turnkey sync. R2 is better when you already have cloud-resource habits and want the storage layer under your own account.
- Fits existing Cloudflare workflows.
- Can be managed alongside other cloud resources.
- Best for technical users and indie developers.
Treat R2 configuration as infrastructure
The sync setup itself is important knowledge. Keep credentials, bucket notes, and recovery steps in a secure place.
When you replace a device or reinstall the app, you should not need to hunt through chat logs or old project files for the sync configuration.
