DOCSTÄCK
Meeting papers manager

DOCSTÄCK

A shared window into your Google Drive where contributors submit papers for upcoming meetings and see the complete pack. Permissions stay locked down by role, while the heavy lifting happens quietly in the background: a Google Sheet is the backbone, an Apps Script web app is the interface, and Google Drive is the document store.

What you get

Templates. Everything pre-wired. Customise freely — it's your copy, in your Workspace.

A book per meeting

Each meeting becomes its own bound volume with agenda, papers, and a downloadable pack.

At-a-glance status board

Every agenda item shows its state with a colour — no paper added, paper received, or reviewed — so you can see exactly what's outstanding at a glance.

Auto-organised in Drive

When a paper is added, the web app copies it into the meeting's Drive folder and renames it to match the agenda item — no manual filing.

Agenda from Google Docs

Paste a Google Doc with an agenda table — items are imported and ordered automatically.

Role-gated access

Admins approve Contributors. Viewers get read-only access. Managed from one Users sheet.

One-click meeting pack

Download every paper for the meeting in one go as a single ZIP file, ready to combine or upload to your board meeting portal.

Sheet is the backend

All the web app data is backed by Google Sheets — no hidden database.

Code already inside

Code.gs and Index.html are bundled in the Sheet's Apps Script. Copy the Sheet, deploy, done.

Who can do what

Admins are added manually in the Users tab. Contributors request access from inside the web app — Admins get an email and approve with one click. Viewers need no setup.

Questions

Why is there no sign-in on doc-stack.com?

Keeping the site sign-in-free means no passwords, no accounts, and no security surface to worry about. Sign-in happens inside your own Google Workspace, where the web app is deployed.

Why a Google Sheet and not a GitHub repo?

Because the code lives inside Apps Script, which is already attached to a Sheet. Selling the Sheet directly means you get the code + backend in one file — no Git, no clasp, no copy/paste between repos.

Where does my data live?

Entirely in your Google account — Sheets for records, Drive for files. doc-stack.com never sees your team data.

Can I customise the script?

Yes. Open Extensions → Apps Script in your copy and edit Code.gs or Index.html however you like. It's your file.

How do I get updates?

When a new version ships, buyers get a link to the latest Sheet. You can compare and copy the updated Code.gs / Index.html into your existing deployment.
