## Overview

AI Coding Dictionary is a plain-English reference organized into seven curriculum sections, from model fundamentals through patterns of work. Readers use the generated README to find explanations; maintainers update the curriculum and dictionary entries, and the generator assembles them with a template into that README. The sampled source confirms the generation inputs and output; the section-level content nodes reflect the README’s documented organization, not inspected implementations beyond the supplied excerpts.

Main entry points: [`internal/generate-readme.ts`](https://github.com/cherylx86/dictionary-of-ai-coding/blob/main/internal/generate-readme.ts) (README generator), [`README.md`](https://github.com/cherylx86/dictionary-of-ai-coding/blob/main/README.md) (Generated dictionary), [`dictionary`](https://github.com/cherylx86/dictionary-of-ai-coding/tree/main/dictionary) (Model concepts), [`internal/Curriculum.md`](https://github.com/cherylx86/dictionary-of-ai-coding/blob/main/internal/Curriculum.md) (Section curriculum)
