+# Learn how to contribute to ETH 2.0!
+
+Lighthouse is an Ethereum 2.0 client built in Rust.
+
+If you are interested in contributing to the Ethereum ecosystem, and you want to learn Rust, Lighthouse is a great project to work on.
+
+Initially this doc will contain reading material to help get you started in Rust and Ethereum. Eventually it will have guides specific to Lighthouse.
