 # LemmyEditThatForYou
+A reproducible developer environment for contributors.
+
+## What is this and why should I care?
+This repository contains nix configuration files to create a reproducible and synchronized NixOS development environment for contributors who wish to help develop our FOSS projects.
+
+The main goal of this project is to reduce one of the main barriers to entry when it comes to users who wish to become contributors.
+
+## How can I use this?
+[WIP]
+
+
+## Side notes
+The project name's a work in progress, suggestions for improving the name will be appreciated and I'd be willing to add you to the credits!🤗
