Description

TUF is too hard for many folks to get the core concepts. We need something that 'explains like I am five years old' (ELI5 for TUf) that provides a very basic explanation that shows why the project matters, how to use it, etc.

This could be via a video, webpage updates, childrens' books, or any combination.

I feel like I don't have the best ability to judge how to do this, so I'm hopeful we can get the community to weigh in and help out.

Research direction
