# Learning & Resources

AISL uses practical AI and developer tooling in teaching, learning, experimentation, prototyping, and skills development. This section brings together **public AISL resources, training material, tutorials, and selected learning-oriented starting points** rather than duplicating complete vendor documentation.

## AISL resources

The following resources are publicly available and can be used independently of access to AISL applications:

* [AISL website](https://aisl.science/) — research, projects, teaching, and community information
* [AISL on GitHub](https://github.com/AISL-science) — public repositories and project resources
* [AISL on Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/AISL-science) — public models, datasets, and artifacts when available
* [Reading Is All You Need](https://huggingface.co/collections/AISL-science/reading-is-all-you-need) — curated AISL reading collection

## Training and tutorials

* [Training Apertus](/learning-and-resources/training-apertus.md) — practical Apertus 1.5 SFT workflow covering the Kaggle training notebook, the text-focused checkpoint, baseline evaluation, current tooling status, and scaling to larger compute

Additional tutorials and notebooks will be added here over time.

## Developer and notebook resources

* [GitHub Education for Students](/external-tools-and-services/github-education-for-students.md) — GitHub Pro, Copilot Student, Codespaces, and Student Developer Pack benefits
* [JetBrains for Students](/external-tools-and-services/jetbrains-for-students.md) — professional IDEs, educational licenses, and JetBrains AI Free
* [AI Coding Assistants](/external-tools-and-services/ai-coding-assistants.md) — free and open-source coding tools and current free tiers
* [Notebook Services](/external-tools-and-services/notebook-services.md) — free and education-oriented browser notebook platforms
* [External Tools and Services](/external-tools-and-services.md) — broader external infrastructure and toolstack overview

External tools and educational offers can change quickly. Check the provider's official documentation before planning a course, assignment, or project around a specific quota or feature.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.aisl.science/learning-and-resources.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
