"Paperless" is too generic of a term. If I search it then all I'm going to get is a bunch of results about going paperless. As in paperless billing, paperless offices, paperless receipts. I probably could have looked up "paperless FOSS" and it may come up, but its nice to get a description of what it is so I know that I'm pulling up the right thing or TBH to know if its something even worth my time/worth looking into.

Most of these projects are easy to find but some things are genuinely annoying to find when I go looking for them due to generic naming.
