-You cannot directly modify files in this repo because you are not a *collaborator*.
+This repository is designed to help you get familiar with the basics of GitHub and how collaboration works in open-source projects.
 
-The **Issues** tab is used to discuss ideas, enhancements, bugs, questions, and so on. They are grouped by *Open* and *Closed*.

-The **Pull requests** tab contains proposals to make some changes in the files located in the repository. Repo's owners may review a request and put your changes if they look good.
+You'll find two important files in the **Code** tab:
 
-You can create an *Issue* or make a *Pull request (PR)* to contribute to the project.
+* **README.md** – A file that explains the purpose and content of this repository (the file you're reading right now).
+* **.gitignore** – A configuration file that tells Git which files and folders should not be tracked.
 
-If you want to propose some changes to this repo, you may *fork* it, modify the content, and create *PR*. A *fork* is just a copy that allows you to change the content without affection the original project.
