Add docs to help ppl new to the project ramp up on the context 🏫

These docs and links come from @sbwsg! As he was ramping up he put
together this great list of resources (and the description wording is
mostly his too).

I hope we can continue to add to this ramp up section, definitely want
to make it as easy as possible for ppl to ramp up on the project, even
if they have no prior experience with k8s (let alone CRDs!).

Thanks @sbwsg :D <3

+### Ramp up
+
+Welcome to the project!! You may find these resources helpful to ramp
+up on some of the technology this project is built on. This project
+extends Kubernetes (aka `k8s`) with Custom Resource Definitions (CRDSs). To
+find out more:
+
+* [The Kubernetes docs on Custom Resources](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/api-extension/custom-resources/) - These will orient you on what words like "Resource" and "Controller" concretely mean
+* [Understanding Kubernetes objects](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/kubernetes-objects/) - This will further solidify k8s nomenclature
+* [API conventions - Types(kinds)](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#types-kinds) - Another useful set of words describing words. "Objects" and "Lists" in k8s land
+* [Extend the Kubernetes API with CustomResourceDefinitions](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-kubernetes-api/custom-resources/custom-resource-definitions/)- A tutorial demonstrating how a Custom Resource Definition can be added to Kubernetes without anything actually "happening"  beyond being able to list Objects of that kind
+
+At this point, you may find it useful to return to these `Tekton Pipeline` docs:
+
+* [Tekton Pipeline README](https://github.com/tektoncd/pipeline/blob/master/docs/README.md) - Some of the terms here may make more sense!
+* Install via [official installation docs](https://github.com/tektoncd/pipeline/blob/master/docs/install.md) or continue though [getting started for development](#getting-started)
+* [Tekton Pipeline "Hello World" tutorial](https://github.com/tektoncd/pipeline/blob/master/docs/tutorial.md) - Define `Tasks`, `Pipelines`, and `PipelineResources`, see what happens when they are run
