There's less documentation for a C corp than there is for an LLC. Literally all you need is a Statement of Information (usually 1 page of basic info, like name and address) and Articles of Incorporation (also 1 page, though they can be longer as required by the needs of the business).

LLCs also require the equivalent of board meetings (aka, member meetings) to avoid veil-piercing, and indeed for veil-piercing purposes have all the same requirements as corporations. (I wrote a law review article on veil-piercing for LLCs, so I'm very familiar with how it works).

S-corps are the easiest, but you'll be more restricted in capital structure. Still, it's sufficient for many more people than realize it.
