Paperless is a dockerized Laravel application intended to allow you to scan, index, and archive all of your paper documents digitally.

The docker container contains everything necessary to keep the application simple, including the webserver, database, process queue, search index, and worker processes. If you don't know what any of that means, then don't worry about it. Just know that Paperless has your back!
