+# Tech Radar for Delegate
+
+Welcome to the **Tech Radar** project for **Delegate**! This project helps us track and assess various technologies, frameworks, and tools that are relevant to our organization. Inspired by the [Zalando Tech Radar](https://github.com/zalando/tech-radar/tree/master), this radar visualizes technology decisions to help guide our engineering and business teams. It currently tracks four categories, which are infrastructure, frameworks, tooling, and cloud services.

+
+## Purpose
+
+The goal of the Tech Radar is to provide a snapshot of technologies our organization is exploring, adopting, or retiring. 
+
+## How It Works
+
+The Tech Radar categorizes technologies into quadrants and assigns them to stages based on their maturity and adoption within our organization:
+- **Quadrants** represent different categories of technology (e.g., Infrastructure, Frameworks, Tooling, Cloud Services).
+- **Stages** reflect the technology's current status:
+ - **Adopt**: We are actively using this technology and recommend it.
+ - **Trial**: We encourage testing this technology in limited scope.
+ - **Assess**: We are exploring this technology but have not yet committed.
+ - **Hold**: We discourage usage and may retire this technology soon.
+
+## Contributing
+
+We welcome contributions from across the organization to keep the Tech Radar updated and relevant! To suggest new technologies or request changes:
+
+1. **Submit a new technology**: Use the [feature request template](./.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.md) to propose a new technology or change an existing one.
+2. **Report a Bug**: Use the [bug report template](./.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.md) to report issues with the radar or project.
