Transforms hierarchically-organized markdown content files into a fully-rendered static documentation site using VuePress 1.9.10 as the build engine. The system implements a three-tier architecture separating content (markdown in AI/ and Vibe Coding directories), configuration (modular TypeScript in .vuepress/), and build automation (GitHub Actions + JavaScript scripts). VuePress processes markdown through a Vue-powered SSG pipeline, generating HTML with client-side hydration for interactive components.
Unique: Implements a dual-content-stream architecture (Vibe Coding + AI Knowledge Base) with separate sidebar hierarchies via .vuepress/extraSideBar.ts and .vuepress/sidebar.ts, allowing two distinct learning paths to coexist in a single VuePress instance without content collision. Most documentation sites use a single hierarchy; this design enables parallel pedagogical tracks.
vs alternatives: Faster deployment iteration than Docusaurus or Sphinx because VuePress uses Vue's reactive system for instant preview updates during authoring, and GitHub Actions automation eliminates manual build steps that plague traditional static site generators.
Organizes markdown content into two parallel directory hierarchies (Vibe Coding 零基础教程/ and AI/) that map to distinct user personas and learning objectives. The system uses TypeScript sidebar configuration (.vuepress/sidebar.ts) to generate navigation trees that expose different content sequences to different audiences. Each path has its own progression model: Vibe Coding uses 6-stage progression for beginners; AI path segments into DeepSeek documentation, application scenarios, project tutorials, and industry news.
Unique: Implements a 'content multiplexing' pattern where the same markdown files can appear in multiple sidebar contexts through configuration-driven path mapping, rather than duplicating files. The .vuepress/sidebar.ts configuration file acts as a routing layer that exposes different navigation trees to different entry points, enabling one-to-many content distribution.
ai-guide scores higher at 50/100 vs Workato at 29/100. ai-guide also has a free tier, making it more accessible.

vs alternatives: More flexible than Docusaurus's single-hierarchy approach because it allows two completely independent navigation structures to coexist without forking the codebase, while simpler than building a custom CMS that would require database schema design and content versioning infrastructure.
Aggregates tutorials and best practices for popular AI development tools (Cursor, Claude Code, TRAE, Lovable, Copilot) into a searchable reference organized by tool and use case. The system uses markdown files documenting tool features, integration patterns, and productivity tips, with cross-references to relevant AI concepts and project tutorials. Content includes screenshots, keyboard shortcuts, and workflow examples showing how to use each tool effectively. The architecture treats each tool as a first-class entity with dedicated documentation, enabling users to compare tools and find the best fit for their workflow.
Unique: Treats each AI development tool as a first-class entity with dedicated documentation sections rather than scattered tips in tutorials. This enables side-by-side comparison of how different tools (Cursor vs Copilot) solve the same problem, which is difficult in official documentation that focuses on a single tool.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than individual tool documentation because it aggregates patterns across multiple tools in one searchable site, and more practical than blog posts because it includes consistent structure, screenshots, and keyboard shortcuts for quick reference.
Provides structured tutorials for integrating AI capabilities into applications using popular frameworks (Spring AI, LangChain) with code examples, architecture patterns, and best practices. The system uses markdown files with embedded code snippets showing how to implement common patterns (RAG, agents, tool calling) in each framework. Content is organized by framework and pattern, with cross-references to concept documentation and project tutorials. The architecture treats each framework as a distinct integration path, enabling users to choose the framework matching their tech stack.
Unique: Organizes AI framework tutorials by integration pattern (RAG, agents, tool calling) rather than by framework, enabling users to learn a pattern once and see how it's implemented across multiple frameworks. This cross-framework organization makes it easy to compare approaches and choose the best framework for a specific pattern.
vs alternatives: More practical than official framework documentation because it includes cross-framework comparisons and patterns, and more discoverable than scattered blog posts because tutorials are organized by pattern and framework with consistent structure.
Provides guidance on building and monetizing AI products, including business models, pricing strategies, go-to-market approaches, and case studies. The system uses markdown files documenting different monetization models (SaaS subscriptions, API usage-based pricing, freemium + premium tiers) with examples of successful AI products. Content includes financial projections, customer acquisition strategies, and common pitfalls to avoid. The architecture treats monetization as a distinct knowledge domain separate from technical tutorials, enabling non-technical founders to learn business strategy alongside developers learning technical implementation.
Unique: Treats monetization as a first-class knowledge domain with dedicated documentation, rather than scattered tips in product tutorials. This enables non-technical founders to learn business strategy without reading technical implementation details, and enables technical teams to understand the business context for their AI products.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than individual blog posts because it aggregates monetization strategies across multiple AI product types in one searchable site, and more practical than business textbooks because it includes real AI product examples and case studies rather than generic business theory.
Injects interactive widgets (QR codes, call-to-action buttons, partner service links) into the page sidebar and footer via .vuepress/extraSideBar.ts and .vuepress/footer.ts configuration modules. The system uses Vue component rendering to display engagement elements (WeChat QR codes, Discord links, course enrollment buttons) alongside content, creating conversion funnels that direct users from free content to paid courses, community channels, and external services. Widgets are configured as TypeScript arrays and rendered by custom theme components (Page.vue).
Unique: Implements a declarative widget configuration system where engagement elements are defined as TypeScript data structures in .vuepress/ rather than hardcoded in theme components, enabling non-developers to modify CTAs and links by editing configuration files without touching Vue code. This separates content strategy (what to promote) from implementation (how to render).
vs alternatives: More maintainable than hardcoding widgets in theme components because configuration changes don't require rebuilding the theme, and more flexible than static footer links because widgets can include dynamic elements (QR codes, conditional rendering) without custom component development.
Orchestrates content updates and site deployment through GitHub Actions workflows that trigger on repository changes. The system includes JavaScript build scripts that process markdown, generate navigation metadata, and invoke VuePress compilation. GitHub Actions workflows automate the full pipeline: detect content changes, run build scripts, generate static assets, and deploy to production (https://ai.codefather.cn). The architecture separates content generation scripts (JavaScript in root) from deployment configuration (GitHub Actions YAML workflows).
Unique: Implements a 'push-to-deploy' model where contributors only need to commit markdown to GitHub; the entire build-test-deploy pipeline runs automatically without manual intervention. The system separates build logic (JavaScript scripts in root) from orchestration (GitHub Actions YAML), allowing build scripts to be tested locally before committing, reducing deployment surprises.
vs alternatives: Simpler than self-hosted CI/CD (Jenkins, GitLab CI) because GitHub Actions is integrated into the repository platform with no infrastructure to maintain, and faster than manual deployment because it eliminates the human step of running local builds and uploading artifacts.
Curates and organizes tutorials for multiple AI models (DeepSeek, GPT, Gemini, Claude) and frameworks (LangChain, Spring AI) into a searchable knowledge base. The system uses markdown content organized by tool/model in the AI/ directory, with cross-referenced links enabling users to compare approaches across models. Content includes usage examples, API integration patterns, and best practices for each tool. The architecture treats each AI tool as a first-class content entity with its own documentation section, rather than scattering tool-specific content throughout generic tutorials.
Unique: Treats each AI model/framework as a first-class content entity with dedicated documentation sections (AI/关于 DeepSeek/, AI/DeepSeek 资源汇总/) rather than scattering tool-specific content in generic tutorials. This enables side-by-side comparison of how different models implement the same capability, which is difficult in official documentation that focuses on a single model.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than individual model documentation because it aggregates patterns across multiple models in one searchable site, and more practical than academic papers because it includes real API integration examples and hands-on tutorials rather than theoretical comparisons.
