The online PhotoPrism documentation is super awesome. It has some very useful/handy topic like Search Filters. https://docs.photoprism.app/user-guide/search/filters/

This request is to ship/bundle the PhotoPrism documentation along with the built Docker images. This way, users will be self-sufficient and easily be able to find exact and relevant information to a particular build of PhotoPrism.

While this seems feasible, there are a few drawbacks to consider:

(1) Creating and deploying the documentation (so that it looks good and is easy to use) is additional work that we can't afford right now.
(2) We typically update our documentation several times a week, so bundled documentation would be missing (potentially important) details and explanations that are included in our online docs, for example because a user asked for them and we recently added them.
(3) Bundling the documentation would increase the size of the download or Docker image, and we could only bundle the English documentation, while some users might prefer other language versions.
