For Everyone

Tech Terms Explained Simply

New to tech? Here's what these terms mean in plain English.

AI & Machine Learning

Teaching computers to learn from data and make decisions, like how you learn from experience. Think: Netflix recommendations or voice assistants.

RAG Systems

Retrieval-Augmented Generation: AI that searches for relevant information before answering, making responses more accurate and reliable.

NLP (Natural Language Processing)

Teaching computers to understand and work with human language. Examples: translation apps, chatbots, or text summarization.

Backend Development

The "behind-the-scenes" part of websites and apps. It handles data storage, security, and business logic that users don't see.

Full-Stack Development

Building both the visible part (frontend) and behind-the-scenes (backend) of websites and apps. A full-stack developer does it all.

Competitive Programming

Solving coding challenges under time pressure. Like a sport for programmers, testing problem-solving skills and algorithm knowledge.
