How to develop a project in a cloud drive?

Hey @Samathan!

I don’t mean to be a debbie downer, but you really probably shouldn’t try to do it all ON the cloud drive. The reason for that is the pure amount of data that would have to go back and forth at all times, and having to interact with your local hardware to build on a distant drive. Instead, you should look into setting up your cloud drive to be your Source Control!

Basically, the way it works is the “Prime” version is stored on the cloud. Then, say at Uni, you have your laptop updated to match the cloud version. You change a few things on your laptop version, and you submit all changes at once. You go home, hit update, now on your home PC it is identical.

In essence, as many working copies as you want, ONE true version.
Also build on your beefiest pc, from your beefiest pc. It’s very hardware dependent.
