This term is seen when we go through the lesson 3 when we create a new project on vivado. RTL is an acronym for register transfer level. This mean that your VHDL code describes how data is transformed as it is passed from register to register. The transforming of the data is performed by the combinational logic that exists between the registers (source: https://www.doulos.com/knowhow/vhdl_designers_guide)
This term appeared when I look for project topics. SoC stands for system on a chip. SoC is an integrated circuit (also known as a "chip") that integrates all or most components of a computer or other electronic system. These components almost always include a central processing unit (CPU), memory, input/output ports and secondary storage – all on a single substrate or microchip, the size of a coin.

Why do we need to create hdl wrapper when we have a block design? We create it because a block design cannot be synthesized directly. The wrapper is the file that will connect the input/output port of our design to the physical switches/buttons/leds specified in the constraint file.
