- **README** is the first file one should read when accessing a repository. It's also the first file displayed when accessing a repository, a bit like the "homepage" of your repository. On Forgejo, this is interpreted as a [Markdown](/markdown/) file.

- **The Watch, Star and Fork buttons (2)** allow you to interact with other people's repositories. While they don't do much for your own repository, when visiting another user's repository, you can click on "Watch" to get notified about everything important happening in that repository, "Star" to show the user your appreciation (and to help other users find interesting projects more quickly) and "Fork" to create your own copy of the repository, for example to make modifications that you want to share with the original author.
