## Overview

This repository is an Edge AI learning guide and curated resource catalog, with runnable sample projects. Its main workflow takes learners through an eight-phase roadmap, from foundations to deployment and real-world PoCs; sample projects provide hands-on practice. The README documents the roadmap order and major catalog branches. The sampled classifier source supports its internal inference stages; other project internals were not inspected.

Main entry points: [`sample-projects/README.md`](https://github.com/premchand006/awesome-edge-ai/blob/main/sample-projects/README.md) (Sample Projects), [`sample-projects/onnxruntime-classify/classify.py`](https://github.com/premchand006/awesome-edge-ai/blob/main/sample-projects/onnxruntime-classify/classify.py) (CLI Entry), [`foundations/README.md`](https://github.com/premchand006/awesome-edge-ai/blob/main/foundations/README.md) (Foundations), [`model-structures/README.md`](https://github.com/premchand006/awesome-edge-ai/blob/main/model-structures/README.md) (Model Structures)
