The released docker-compose files specify exact versions to be pulled from the hub.
This is to ensure that if the docker-compose files should change at some point

docker pulling the ``latest`` image and running it in an older environment.
The docker-compose files refer to the ``latest`` version, which is always the latest

########
Go to the project page on GitHub and download the
`latest release <https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng/releases>`_.
There are multiple options available.
* Download the dockerfiles archive if you want to pull paperless from
Docker Hub.
* Download the dist archive and extract it if you want to build the docker image
yourself or want to install paperless without docker.
.. hint::
In contrast to paperless, the recommended way to get and update paperless-ng
is not to pull the entire git repository. Paperless-ng includes artifacts
that need to be compiled, and that's already done for you in the release.
.. admonition:: Want to try out paperless-ng before migrating?
The release contains a file ``.env`` which sets the docker-compose project
name to "paperless", which is the same as before and instructs docker-compose
to reuse and upgrade your paperless volumes.
Just rename the project name in that file to anything else and docker-compose
will create fresh volumes for you!
