Product Details
# Paperless-ngx Paperless-ngx is a document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive so you can keep, well, _less paper_. Paperless-ngx is the official successor to the original [Paperless](https://github.com/the-paperless-project/paperless) & [Paperless-ng](https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng) projects and is designed to distribute the responsibility of advancing and supporting the project among a team of people. [Consider joining us!](#community-support) Thanks to the generous folks at [DigitalOcean](https://m.do.co/c/8d70b916d462), a demo is available at [demo.paperless-ngx.com](https://demo.paperless-ngx.com) using login `demo` / `demo`. _Note: demo content is reset frequently and confidential information should not be uploaded._ - [Features](#features) - [Getting started](#getting-started) - [Contributing](#contributing) - [Community Support](#community-support) - [Translation](#translation) - [Feature Requests](#feature-requests) - [Bugs](#bugs) - [Related Projects](#related-projects) - [Important Note](#important-note) # Features A full list of [features](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/#features) and [screenshots](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/#screenshots) are available in the [documentation](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/). # Getting started The easiest way to deploy paperless is `docker compose`. The files in the [`/docker/compose` directory](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/tree/main/docker/compose) are configured to pull the image from GitHub Packages. If you'd like to jump right in, you can configure a `docker compose` environment with our install script: ```bash bash -c "$(curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/main/install-paperless-ngx.sh)" ``` More details and step-by-step guides for alternative installation methods can be found in [the documentation](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/setup/#installation). Migrating from Paperless-ng is easy, just drop in the new docker image! See the [documentation on migrating](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/setup/#migrating-to-paperless-ngx) for more details. ### Documentation The documentation for Paperless-ngx is available at [https://docs.paperless-ngx.com](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/). # Contributing If you feel like contributing to the project, please do!

No guarantees are made regarding security (but we do try!) and you use the app at your own risk. > **The safest way to run Paperless-ngx is on a local server in your own home with backups in place**.
