+
+Maintaining SSH configs can be a pain when you're hopping between multiple devices, even more when syncing apps (Synology/NextCloud/etc) are blocked on some networks/devices.
+
+Make sure you have iCloud Drive enabled and this will symlink your SSH config + key to a folder in iCloud Drive and sync across devices.
+
+The iCloud Drive is located at `~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs`. By putting this file + your config/id_rsa files in here, it will simply symlink them. Warning - the setup script will overwrite existing config/id_rsa files.
+
+Install 
+```bash
+cd ~/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs
+mkdir macOS && cd macOS
+# Create above setup.sh file and copy in your .ssh/config and .ssh/id_rsa keys
+./setup.sh
+```
+
+setup.sh file
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+FOLDER=$(pwd)
+ln -sf "$FOLDER/config" ~/.ssh/config
+ln -sf "$FOLDER/id_rsa" ~/.ssh/id_rsa
+```
