+@cindex Syncthing, file synchronization service
+@cindex backup service, Syncthing
+The @code{(gnu home services syncthing)} module provides a service to
+set up the @uref{Syncthing, https://syncthing.net} continuous file
+backup service.
+
+@defvar home-syncthing-service-type
+This is the service type for the @command{syncthing} daemon; it is the
+Home counterpart of the @code{syncthing-service-type} system service
+(@pxref{Networking Services, @code{syncthing-service-type}}).  The value
+for this service type is a @command{syncthing-configuration}.
+
+Here is how you would set it up with the default configuration:
+
+@lisp
+(service home-syncthing-service-type)
+@end lisp
+
+For a custom configuration, wrap you @code{syncthing-configuration} in
+@code{for-home}, as in this example:
+
+@lisp
+(service home-syncthing-service-type
+         (for-home
+          (syncthing-configuration (logflags 5))))
+@end lisp
+
+For details about @code{syncthing-configuration}, check out the
+documentation of the system service (@pxref{Networking Services,
+@code{syncthing-service-type}}).
