Free 7-week AI engineering curriculum on GitHub: from BM25 search to RAG and LangGraph agents
mdancho84 · x · 2026-09-30
A free "AI university" has been published on GitHub, focused on real-world engineering systems rather than tutorials or theory, structured week by week:
- Week 1: Docker, FastAPI, databases
- Week 2: Automated data pipelines
- Week 3: Build your own search engine (BM25)
- Week 4: Hybrid search (semantic + keyword)
- Week 5: Full RAG system
- Week 6: Production-ready (caching + monitoring)
- Week 7: Agentic AI with LangGraph
The curriculum's pitch is "you don't just learn AI — you ship it," all free on GitHub. The poster also promotes their own free workshop on October 7 (500 seats).
