How to set up cygwin and rsync so that FTP synchronization works?

It is necessary to set up synchronization from the windows machine (I work with files on it) to shared hosting using FTP (just check the files and if they have changed, then change them or delete them on the hosting).
I found the most suitable option for myself is cygwin + rsync. But the Internet break did not understand how I can set up this synchronization.
Please tell me how to do it.

rsync has its own synchronization protocol, which, oddly enough, is called rsync.
As a last resort, rsync can work over SSH, but not over FTP.

If you have FTP, then forget about rsync.
Rsync only works via ssh or its own rsync:// protocol
You can synchronize files with FTP using the lftp utility
