Every time I hit an unfamiliar LLM term while building, I'd look it up and get either a textbook definition or a paper. Useful for understanding what something is, not useful for knowing what to do with it.

So I kept a doc. For each term I wrote down the production angle: why it matters, what it affects, what decision it changes. Cleaned it up, built a small browsable UI, and put it on GitHub.

It's not exhaustive. It's the 30-something terms I personally had to look up and found myself wishing someone had explained better.

Hope someone finds it useful.
