README.md Outdated

Yotas is OSS's reward system, we would like our open source contributors across the organisation to be rewarded for the effort and energy they put into the platform. Each interaction they have on GitHub will give them a certain number of yotas which they can exchange for goodies in an OSS shop, mentoring, ebooks, etc....

This is awesome, please some minor corrections

Yotas is an open source engagement awarding system. Open source contributors across the organisation are awarded for the effort and energy they put into the platform. Each interaction they have on GitHub will give them a certain number of Yotas which can be traded for goodies, mentoring, ebooks (etc...) in an OSS shop.

## Why?
Contributing to open source takes some effort, and we would like every contributor to be rewarded for the time and energy they put into helping our community.

We should change all rewards to awards - the Admins determine (award) what is given to the contributor for the job done

## Description
This reward system is strongly inspired by the correction points and wallet points system applied at Ecole 42. Correction points at Ecole 42 are points that students earn by correcting other students' projects, and lose when they have other students correct their projects. Wallet points are earned when a user contributes to the community, and wallets are directly redeemable for gifts such as 42 logo t-shirts, jacuzzi and other fun rewards.

We can eliminate this from the description; it will difficult to reference Ecole 42 for a description of their own reward system; unless we can have an article pointing to it as a reference

This is a web project, which will be heavily based on a GitHub application that will monitor all events in the organisation and award interaction points.

Amazing work, I am happy to keep the README with that much descriptive text for now. But I think the README should have less informations regarding what the project is but more about how to run and use it. We should be following something similar to what is described on this checklist https://github.com/ddbeck/readme-checklist/blob/main/checklist.md

It will take a while before we have a website with an apropos or a proper README. So I am happy to merge this if you are @abdounasser202
