## Description

**documentsOS Local Editing** is a Chrome extension designed for smooth local editing of documents within otris web applications, such as otris legal SUITE and otris compliance SUITE. It allows users to open documents directly in their preferred local applications—like Microsoft Office—and upon saving, the updated documents are automatically uploaded back to the web application.
