techNmak · x · 2026-08-23
Developer @ghumare64 built and open-sourced a comprehensive curriculum called "AI Engineering from Scratch." The course consists of 20 phases and roughly 320 hours of content, covering Python, TypeScript, Rust, and Julia under the MIT license. Its unique feature is a "build before framework" methodology, requiring students to start from math derivations like backpropagation and manually build basic components such as a tokenizer.
