About Mayan EDMS
Mayan EDMS is a free open source document management system that stores and organizes documents, PDFs, and scans in one central place. It is built to scale and is positioned as a mature option for teams managing large document collections.
Documents run through OCR so their text can be indexed and searched. The system is self-hosted: the official setup deploys with a Docker Compose file, and the application is also distributed as a Docker image and a PyPI package.
Mayan EDMS is written in Python. Active development happens on GitLab, where the source code, issues, and full installation documentation live.
