-> NOTE: We have recently made significant changes to our repository structure. In order to streamline our development
-process and foster better contributions, we have merged three separate repositories Cumulus, Substrate and Polkadot into
-this repository. Read more about the changes [
-here](https://polkadot-public.notion.site/Polkadot-SDK-FAQ-fbc4cecc2c46443fb37b9eeec2f0d85f).

-The Polkadot SDK repository provides all the resources needed to start building on the Polkadot network, a multi-chain
-blockchain platform that enables different blockchains to interoperate and share information in a secure and scalable
-way. The Polkadot SDK comprises three main pieces of software:
-
-## [Polkadot](./polkadot/)
-[![PolkadotForum](https://img.shields.io/badge/Polkadot_Forum-e6007a?logo=polkadot)](https://forum.polkadot.network/)
-[![Polkadot-license](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-GPL3-blue)](./polkadot/LICENSE)
-
-Implementation of a node for the https://polkadot.network in Rust, using the Substrate framework. This directory
-currently contains runtimes for the Polkadot, Kusama, Westend, and Rococo networks. In the future, these will be
-relocated to the [`runtimes`](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/) repository.
-
-## [Substrate](./substrate/)
- [![SubstrateRustDocs](https://img.shields.io/badge/Rust_Docs-Substrate-24CC85?logo=rust)](https://paritytech.github.io/substrate/master/substrate/index.html)
- [![Substrate-license](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-GPL3%2FApache2.0-blue)](./substrate/README.md#LICENSE)
-
-Substrate is the primary blockchain SDK used by developers to create the parachains that make up the Polkadot network.
-Additionally, it allows for the development of self-sovereign blockchains that operate completely independently of
-Polkadot.
-
-## [Cumulus](./cumulus/)
-[![CumulusRustDocs](https://img.shields.io/badge/Rust_Docs-Cumulus-222222?logo=rust)](https://paritytech.github.io/cumulus/cumulus_client_collator/index.html)
-[![Cumulus-license](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-GPL3-blue)](./cumulus/LICENSE)
-
-Cumulus is a set of tools for writing Substrate-based Polkadot parachains.
