I want to work on images, code and other stuff on different devices (pc or laptops) but i want to be able to access the files / source code across all devices.

So the solution is to use a cloud service right?

What is the best setup.

I need to be able to save projects/files locally but when these are saved/updated they are also synced with the files on the cloud. I can then go to another device hook it up to the cloud and work on those same files.

is there anything like this. the important thing is security and having local file synced on all devices aswell as the cloud
 
Dropbox works pretty well for this.

It basically does exactly what you are requesting- you have a local copy of all files. When you change something it syncs with the cloud version which in turn syncs with all other devices.

Microsoft onedrive also does the same thing.

if you want something that you can manage yourself then look at owncloud.
 
Github? Learn the basic git commands. And you are good to go.
 
rclone to your rescue bro. I mounted a cloud storage as a drive on my windows PC (works for Linux too) and It just works as a normal local drive system. So, you can either copy to the drive or sync, it's your call.
 
As mentioned above, Dropbox is the easiest thing to consider.

However, if you need to develop code that is platform-independent (let's say you want a script to work on all your devices) you can either create a virtual environment (as Python has) or you can use Kubernetes or a VPS (your PC in the cloud) and access it via RDP or teamviewer.
