Launching Documize

To launch Documize, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080.

You might see a warning page that says "Your connection is not private." This is because Documize uses SSL encryption, and your browser does not trust the certificate provided by Documize by default.

To bypass this warning, click on the "Advanced" button, then click on "Proceed to localhost (unsafe)".

This will take you to the Documize dashboard.
