+# AIS Contributor Portal - Overview
+
+# Purpose
+The AIS Contributor Portal is a centralized system that will allow officers to 
+- assign tasks
+- publish furure intstruction
+- collect contributor feedback
+
+#   Why We (AIS) Need This
+#   AIS will continue to experience influxes of students each semester. 
+#   Without a structured system:
+#   - tasks can be unorganized
+#   - generalized progress will be difficult to  track
+#   - contributors will lack clarity on operations
+#   - faculty cannot easily monitor activity
+
+#   Core Features
+#   - task assignment and tracking
+#   - instructions and documentation
+#   - feedback submission
+#   - real-time updates
+#   - faculty dashboard for oversight
+
+#   VPS Hosting Requirement
+#   In order to reliably operate and support real-time functionality while developing, the #   portal requires VPS hosting for:
+#   - 24/7 accessibility
+#   - secure database storage
+#   - multi-user load handling
+#   - real-time updates
+#   - infrastructure support
