This open-source study note systematically outlines a complete knowledge path from Python basics to Transformer architecture, RAG systems, and AI agents, covering core skills like LangChain practice and vector database applications.
Section 01
Generative AI is reshaping the tech industry landscape, but developers often face systemic entry barriers. The open-source study note introduced in this article starts from Python basics, gradually dives into cutting-edge technologies like LLM, RAG, and prompt engineering, providing a structured learning path and practical projects to help build real AI applications.
Section 02
Current generative AI learning resources have three major pain points: fragmented knowledge (lack of coherence between individual technical points), disconnect between theory and practice (more concepts, less hands-on), and rapid updates to the tech stack (difficulty grasping core threads). The value of this open-source note lies in its structured learning process, with weekly progress tracking and supporting project code, allowing learners to master core competencies step by step.
Section 03
Section 04
Focus on basic concepts of generative AI, including generative model principles and Transformer architecture working mechanisms, building an intuitive understanding rather than mathematical details.
Dive into efficient interaction techniques: context windows, few-shot learning, chain-of-thought, etc.; introduce embedding concepts to lay the foundation for semantic search and RAG.
Build a complete RAG system hands-on: document loading and splitting, vector index construction, retrieval strategy optimization, generation enhancement.
Explore cutting-edge technologies: ReAct pattern, tool-calling APIs, memory management, etc., to achieve multi-step task and collaboration capabilities.
Section 05
After completing the learning, you can independently build:
Section 06
Learning Suggestions:
The value of this open-source note lies in its structured learning method. In today's rapidly developing AI field, systematic learning ability is more important than a single technology.
Section 07
Generative AI is moving from the lab to production environments, and core technologies like LLM and RAG have become essential skills for modern developers. This resource provides a verified path from Python basics to AI agents, with clear goals and practical projects, suitable for traditional developers transitioning to AI or practitioners organizing their knowledge systems.

Splinter is a minimalist, high-performance key-value (KV) and vector storage system enabling zero-latency inter-process communication via shared memory and atomic operations. With only 766 lines of core code, it supports millions of operations per second and 768-dimensional vector storage, offering a new architectural approach for local LLM inference and data-intensive applications.
Folkering OS is the world's first AI-native bare-metal operating system, entirely written in Rust no_std without relying on Linux, POSIX, or libc. It can generate commands from scratch, compile them into WASM, and run them in 10 seconds, achieving true self-evolution.
This project explores how to use Large Language Models (LLMs) to detect logical vulnerabilities in Ethereum smart contracts, especially business logic flaws that are difficult for traditional static analysis tools to capture, such as economic manipulation and execution order errors.
This article introduces an open-source project for building modern large language models from scratch. The project evolves from a GPT-2-style basic architecture to a Llama 2/3-style production-level implementation, covering complete tutorial implementations of key technologies such as RMSNorm, RoPE, SwiGLU, GQA, and MoE.
