# Welcome

## Repository

This website aims to be a repository of all information related to the Star Atlas DAO Ecosystem. For your convenience, the information is structured in the following way:

1. **Overview** — This section contains information on the DAO, the various parties that play a role, and the Treasury. It is the perfect introduction to understanding how the DAO is structured and how it operates.
2. **Governance** — Here, we go in-depth into how the Star Atlas Governance functions, explaining how to gain POLIS Voting Power and how you can help shape the DAO and the ecosystem through POLIS Improvement Proposals (PIPs). We'll go especially deep into these proposals, explaining how to create them, their lifecycle, and the required format and content.
3. **Archive** — This category contains all Foundation PIPs (for easy reference), plus an overview of DAO and Council history.
4. **PIP Examples** — To help you on your way to create a POLIS Improvement Proposal, we will list a few examples of different types of proposals so you can get a better idea of how to create a good proposal in one go.
5. **Appendices** — Lastly, there are a number of appendices that contain various semi-related information. The first one contains links to every (officially) published piece of information (outside of the PIPs themselves).
