I use resilio sync to sync my dev folders for all my machines. Sometimes it gets crazy when I’m doing compilation tasks, like thousands of temporary files generated and deleted. In general, I just leave it running and never need to think I about synchronize folders. It also works on all platforms, and syncs with my Synology nas.
I started using it since it was called “bt sync” back then, and it has been working well enough that I have never thought about changing to other alternatives.
Yeah I found these cloud sync solutions. What you're going through seems to be a common problem of these online sync solutions with dev files. I found some hacks of storing node_modules outside the sync directories, but it's kind of another hassle to deal with. I'm still testing. It would be great if a solution existed just for development. It would definitely take off.

You can specify resilio to not sync certain folders, matched by regex I believe.
