Restic Backup GX is a desktop application that provides a graphical interface for the Restic backup program. It allows users to create and manage backup profiles, select directories for backup and restore files from encrypted repositories.
The application organises backup configurations into profiles, making it possible to work with different repositories or storage destinations without repeatedly entering their settings.
Existing Restic repositories can be reused. When configuring a profile, the application can detect an existing repository and obtain information about folders from previously created snapshots where possible.
Restic Backup GX supports different approaches to repository passwords, allowing users to choose between entering a password interactively and obtaining credentials from a file or command. This provides flexibility for different security requirements and backup workflows.
This is free and open source software.
