Your Full Roadmap to Agentic AI, Simplified and Actionable

I put together a complete set of resources for anyone who wants to understand, design, and build agentic-AI systems. This is the most practical, link-first roadmap I’ve seen for founders, operators, educators, and non-technical builders.

It includes repositories, guides, books, papers, and beginner-friendly tools that make it possible to build agents without being an engineer.

Here’s my curated list

Why this roadmap matters

Agentic AI is moving fast, but it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. With the right mental models and tools, founders and operators can start building meaningful systems today — without deep technical backgrounds.

Use it, save it, and share it with anyone exploring agentic AI.
