 This is the source code of our [U.10 Makerspace Worms Homepage](https://u10.makercloud.de)
 
 It is based on the [Open Source Website of the RUB Makerspace](https://makerspace.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/)
+
+## Project Structure and Functions
+
+This project uses [MkDocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/), a fast, simple and downright gorgeous static site generator that's geared towards building project documentation.
+
+### File Structure
+
+- `mkdocs.yml`: The configuration file for the MkDocs project.
+- `docs/`: The directory where all of your documentation is stored in Markdown format.
+    - `aktuelles/`: Contains markdown files for current events and news.
+    - `assets/`: Contains images and other static files.
+    - `bereiche/`: Contains markdown files for different areas of the Makerspace.
+    - `js/`: Contains JavaScript files for custom scripts.
+    - `kontakt/`: Contains markdown files for contact information.
+    - `makerspace_nutzen/`: Contains markdown files for using the Makerspace.
+    - `orga/`: Contains individual markdown files for each team member.
+    - `snippets/`: Contains markdown files for reusable snippets.
+    - `spenden/`: Contains markdown files for donations and sponsors.
+    - `stylesheets/`: Contains CSS files for custom styling.
+  
+    
+- `.gitignore`: Specifies files and directories that should be ignored by Git.
+- `README.md`: The file you're reading right now.
+- `mkdocs.sh`: A shell script to build the MkDocs project locally and start a hot-reload docker environment. Reachable under `http://0.0.0.0:8000/`.
+
+
+- **Local testing**: MkDocs comes with built-in dev-server (started with `./mkdocs.sh`) that lets you preview your documentation as you work on it. Make changes to your `mkdocs.yml` or your docs and MkDocs will automatically update and refresh your browser.
+- **Deployment**: Gitea Actions builds your site and pushes it to the webserver. Push your locally working commit to Gitea and Gitea Actions will do the rest.
+
+
+Remember, the `docs/` directory is where you should place your documentation source files. These files should be written in Markdown.
