# Introduction

## What is CTimelines?

**CTimelines** (Cardano Timelines) is a **collaborative** project whose main mission is to promote the **education** of community members regarding the **Cardano ecosystem**.

## **Origin of the project**

CTimelines **arises from the need** that, for a member of the community, it is very difficult to have a **comprehensive vision of the history of the ecosystem.**

**A vision** which allows them to understand in a **simple, clear** and **concise** way where we come from and where we are going.

## **How is the goal achived?**

CTimelines **consolidates, simplifies and provides resources/tools** that facilitate understanding and adoption within the ecosystem.

* CTimelines **educates by providing a public reference repository** where the entire history of the ecosystem is consolidated.
* CTimelines **educates by publishing NFT Collections infographics of the ecosystem**, each one seeking to represent it from a different perspective.

## **What elements is it made up of?**

### Ecosystem Milestones Repository

CTimelines is made up of a **public** [**repository** ](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11cO58jsGxH7PE_oiGYxvZ2UokU25oKNN7K_ODJXvxkM/edit?usp=sharing)where all the **milestones** in the **history of the Cardano ecosystem** are consolidated.

From the information consolidated in the repository, **infographics are designed** that seek to **visually and interactively represent** the history of the ecosystem from a **unique and particular perspective**. Thus complementing the rest of the visualizations, as if it were a great choral work.

### NFT Collections

Each **infographic** will have an **NFT collection** launch **associated** with it.

The main objective of which will be to **finance** the **editors** and **designers** of the infographics, who are in charge not only of creating them and giving them life, but also of maintaining them, given that they will receive regular updates.
