Most GenAI content explains techniques in isolation. This map shows how they connect into working systems.

What's inside
Five clusters, 22 domains

From core theory to production deployment โ€” every major area of the GenAI stack, organised by how they relate to each other.

Foundations
5 domains

Core technical concepts that explain how models work โ€” the theory behind the tools.

TransformersAttentionTokenizationEmbeddingsMultimodal
Building
6 domains

How GenAI applications are constructed in practice โ€” prompting, retrieval, agents, and the tooling around them.

PromptingRAGAgentsFine-tuningDev ToolsData Engineering
Production
3 domains

What is required to deploy and operate GenAI reliably at scale โ€” infrastructure, patterns, and engineering practices.

InfrastructureSystem DesignObservabilityEvaluation pipelines
Governance
2 domains

How GenAI systems are evaluated, monitored, and controlled โ€” quality, safety, and risk management.

EvaluationSafetyGuardrailsRed-teaming
Applications
6 domains

Common patterns of real-world GenAI solutions โ€” where the stack lands in production.

1

Click a node

Opens an explanation, diagram, copy-ready code example, and key questions by role โ€” Leader, PM, and Engineer โ€” in the side panel.

2

Double-click to expand

Drills into a cluster to reveal sub-topics and tools. Use the toolbar to jump to any depth instantly.

3

Search any concept

Type in the search bar to jump directly to any topic โ€” even ones hidden deep inside a cluster.

Nodes marked โ—† include code examples and diagrams.

Who this is for
Three kinds of readers

โš™๏ธ

Engineers

Understand architectures, tooling choices, and implementation patterns across the full GenAI stack.

๐Ÿ“–

Learners

Build structured understanding from fundamentals to real-world systems โ€” with code and diagrams on every key concept.

๐Ÿงญ

Product & Leaders

Every major node includes Leader and PM-specific questions โ€” on strategy, prioritisation, and trade-offs โ€” so you can engage GenAI discussions with sharper instincts.
