Checkpoint – Automated intelligent backup for development environments

Summary: Checkpoint provides encrypted cloud backups with version history for files and databases that Git ignores, running silently in the background to protect development projects. It supports multiple databases and offers a native macOS dashboard for management.

What it does

Checkpoint automatically backs up environment files, databases, and credentials excluded by Git, syncing encrypted data to the cloud with version control and a macOS dashboard.

Who it's for

Developers needing reliable backups for sensitive or untracked project data across various databases and environments.

Why it matters

It prevents data loss from unbacked files and databases that standard version control systems omit, ensuring project continuity.
