+# Year of Challenges 2017
+
+Hello and welcome to the Year of Programming 2017's challenges repository! Here
+we will be posting ~~daily~~ periodic challenges for the community to complete.
+
+## Challenges
+
+Each challenge will be posted in its own folder, in numbered order. Each
+challenge folder will have a Challenge.md file describing the challenge, and may
+have some example code or data provided.
+
+## Solutions
+
+To participate, simply fork the repository and then make a folder for your
+solution, inside the challenge you are solving.
+
+If I am solving the example challenge in Rust, I would work in the folder
+`challenge_example/rust/myrrlyn`, to organize solutions by their language and
+then their author. This allows us to easily browse solutions by language, and
+compare work!
+
+## Submitting Your Work
+
+To submit, just open a pull request on the main repository. We'll make sure
+that merging won't cause any problems, and go from there.
