Follow-up reply with links to all six repositories from the minimal ML study list: micrograd (100-line scalar-valued autograd engine plus a 50-line PyTorch-like NN library, 18.7k stars), nanoGPT, minGPT, tinygrad, llm.c, and minimalRL — ideal for learning backprop, transformers, framework internals, and RL from scratch.
