-# TODO
-We haven't yet been able to finish the README yet, sorry.
-You can however still look at [the old README](https://git.staropensource.de/StarOpenSource/Engine/src/commit/1e978e314687109fefa4a0966d772bb0facac338/README.md).

+# About
+The StarOpenSource Engine is a game and application
+framework written in Kotlin, primarily targeting the JVM.
+The engine is designed to be modular, configurable
+and extensible while being lightweight and fast.
+
+In this repository you can find the
+[engine's logging system](https://git.staropensource.de/StarOpenSource/Engine/src/branch/develop/logging),
+[engine core](https://git.staropensource.de/StarOpenSource/Engine/src/branch/develop/base), official
+subsystems, [their documentation](https://git.staropensource.de/StarOpenSource/Engine/src/branch/develop/docs)
+and [some miscellaneous files](https://git.staropensource.de/StarOpenSource/Engine/src/branch/develop/docs).
+
+# Contributing
+TODO, waiting for [Infrastructure/website-docs#1](https://git.staropensource.de/Infrastructure/website-docs/issues/1). Sorry :c
+
+# Gradle properties
+You can modify Gradle's behaviour by passing one or multiple *project properties*.
+These are read by our `build.gradle.kts` files and actively change the build behaviour.
+All of them are listed here.
+
+## Skipping the Java toolchain specification
+Setting `java.skipToolchainSpecification` to `true` disables the
+JDK version check & download step performed by Gradle. Useful when
+automating things or if you're facing the `No locally installed
+toolchains match and toolchain download repositories have not
+been defined` error.
+
+## JVM arguments
+You can pass the following arguments to modify the
+behaviour of JVMs used for executing projects.
+### `jvm.logGC`
+Enables garbage collection logging.
+
+Takes effect if set to `true`.
+### `jvm.logJITandAOT`
+Enables logging about [JIT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation)
+and [AOT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahead-of-time_compilation) code compilation.
+
+Takes effect if set to `true`.
+### `jvm.garbageCollector`
+Sets the garbage collector to use.
+Requires the specified garbage collector to
+be built into the JVM (some aren't compiled
+by default).
+
+Accepts [`epsilon`](https://openjdk.org/jeps/318),
+[`serial`](https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/21/gctuning/available-collectors.html#GUID-45794DA6-AB96-4856-A96D-FDE5F7DEE498)
+and [`g1`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage-first_collector).
