# Upload and share

Moss is a social document management and sharing platform based on Web3, through which any files uploaded by users are stored on IPFS/Arweave through [4EVERLAND](https://www.4everland.org). You can find detailed information regarding this in the previous section's "Features".

Uploading and sharing files on Moss is as easy as it is on traditional cloud storage platforms:

1. Log in to Moss, go to "My Moss", and click the "+ NEW" button at the top right. Then select "New Folder".
