docs

Paperwork, for short

Docs is the plural of doc, an informal shortening of documents or documentation.

In technical contexts, docs typically means reference materials: Have you read the docs?

The docs explain how to set up the API.

It also serves as shorthand for doctors: The docs say she'll make a full recovery.
