+Serve Folders plugin
+====================
+
+This **official** plugin enables Orthanc to serve additional folders
+from the filesystem using its embedded Web server.
+
+This plugin is extremely useful to create new Web applications on the
+top of the REST API of Orthanc, as it allows to fulfill the
+`same-origin policy
+<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-origin_policy>`__ without setting
+up a reverse proxy.
