That is exactly what it should say in the large blue text at the top of the page, instead of the vague sentence that is currently there. ("Tonido is an open personal web application platform that runs on your desktop which safeguards your privacy and online freedom")
actually tonido is also a platform. it comes with a set of applications currently. can build apps on top of it. thats why we are not sure what message is appropriate (platform or functionality or apps)
This is purely my intuition, but it seems like anyone who would develop for the platform is pretty used to digging around a website for information. The people who are just syncing photos, videos, etc. are more likely to be scared off by the first line on the front page.
If it were me I'd put up a simple explanation on the front page then give developers an obvious place to go for more information on the platform.
