 # Constraints
 
-Some boundaries around our project.
+Some boundaries around our project. This document outlines both external
+ constraints (factors beyond our control) and internal constraints
+ (team-specific challenges, both involuntary and voluntary) to
+ provide a clear framework for delivering a successful project.
 
 ## External
 
-<!--
-  constraints coming from the outside that your team has no control over:
-  - project deadlines
-  - number of unit tests required to pass a code review
-  - technologies (sometimes a client will tell you what to use)
-  - power or connectivity
-  - ...
--->
+External constraints are limitations imposed by factors outside the team’s
+ direct control.
+
+- **Internet Connectivity**: Unreliable or slow internet access can disrupt
+communication, research, and collaborative workflows, affecting project progress.
 
 ## Internal: Involuntary
 
-<!--
-  constraints that come from within your team, and you have no control over:
-  - each of your individual skill levels
-  - amount of time available to work on the project
--->
+Internal involuntary constraints arise from unavoidable limitations within
+ the team or organization.
+
+- **Varying Levels in Programming**: The team has varying levels of
+ programming expertise. Prioritizing tasks that align with team
+ members’ learning goals or strengths to foster growth while
+ ensuring quality output.
+- **Time Availability**: Team members may have limited hours
+ to dedicate to the project due to fixed schedules, personal commitments,
+ or overlapping responsibilities.
 
 ## Internal: Voluntary
 
-<!--
-  constraints that your team decided on to help scope the project. they may include:
-  - coding style & conventions
-  - agree on a code review checklist for the project repository
-  - the number of hours you want to spend working
-  - only using the colors black and white
--->
+Voluntary internal constraints are self-imposed limitations set by the team
+ to guide the project and ensure quality, efficiency,
+ and alignment with goals.
+
+- **Repository Collaboration**: All members will contribute to a shared GitHub
+repository, promoting teamwork and collective ownership of the project.
