## Backup and Syncing
Toru stores tasks and other metadata locally in the folder of the vault in the interest of making that data easily accessible for backups, syncing across devices, and to be easy to export from. However, because Toru uses sequential IDs, sharing a vault across computers asynchronously, such as with Git, can cause different notes to be in conflict with each other. If all vault metadata is synced across devices completely before use, such conflicts can be avoided.
