Vijay Janapa Reddi	f8104f726a	Restructure TinyTorch into three-part learning journey (17 modules) ... - Part I: Foundations (Modules 1-5) - Build MLPs, solve XOR - Part II: Computer Vision (Modules 6-11) - Build CNNs, classify CIFAR-10 - Part III: Language Models (Modules 12-17) - Build transformers, generate text Key changes: - Renamed 05_dense to 05_networks for clarity - Moved 08_dataloader to 07_dataloader (swap with attention) - Moved 07_attention to 13_attention (Part III) - Renamed 12_compression to 16_regularization - Created placeholder dirs for new language modules (12,14,15,17) - Moved old modules 13-16 to temp_holding for content migration - Updated README with three-part structure - Added comprehensive documentation in docs/three-part-structure.md This structure gives students three natural exit points with concrete achievements at each level.	2025-09-22 09:50:48 -04:00
Vijay Janapa Reddi	6c2b253751	refactor: Implement learner-focused module progression with better naming ... ✅ Renamed modules for clearer pedagogical flow: - 05_networks → 05_dense (multi-layer dense/fully connected networks) - 06_cnn → 06_spatial (convolutional networks for spatial patterns) - 06_attention → 07_attention (attention mechanisms for sequences) ✅ Shifted remaining modules down by 1: - 07_dataloader → 08_dataloader - 08_autograd → 09_autograd - 09_optimizers → 10_optimizers - 10_training → 11_training - 11_compression → 12_compression - 12_kernels → 13_kernels - 13_benchmarking → 14_benchmarking - 14_mlops → 15_mlops - 15_capstone → 16_capstone ✅ Updated module metadata (module.yaml files): - Updated names, descriptions, dependencies - Fixed prerequisite chains and enables relationships - Updated export paths to match new names New learner progression: Foundation → Individual Layers → Dense Networks → Spatial Networks → Attention Networks → Training Pipeline Perfect pedagogical flow: Build one layer → Stack dense layers → Add spatial patterns → Add attention mechanisms → Learn to train them all.	2025-07-18 00:12:50 -04:00
Vijay Janapa Reddi	8afe207ce5	Renumber modules from 00-13 to 01-14 for natural numbering ... ✅ Rename all module directories: 00_setup → 01_setup, etc. ✅ Update convert_modules.py mappings for new directory names ✅ Update _toc.yml file paths and titles (1-14 instead of 0-13) ✅ Regenerate all overview pages with new numbering ✅ Fix all broken references in usage-paths and intro ✅ Update chapter references to use natural numbering Benefits: - More intuitive course progression starting from 1 - Matches academic course numbering conventions - Eliminates confusion about 'Module 0' concept - Cleaner mental model for students and instructors - All references and links properly updated Complete transformation: 14 modules now numbered 01-14	2025-07-15 18:51:36 -04:00
