“We had more than 40 000 visits in just two weeks, 35% of them being from USA, 7.7% from China and 3.7% from Armenia,” he said.

Touching on how they came up with the idea of such a guide, Hrant Khachatryan noted that after foundation of YerevaNN many people asked them how they could acquire deep learning knowledge.

“Different people find different learning resources convenient, be they more theoretical or more practical, explained simply or in pure math. At some point we realized that it would be better to take some time and compose a complete guide, include materials convenient for people with different preferences, and to show which materials cover by which topics,” YerevaNN founder said.

Hrant Khachatryan stressed that the guide would get regular updates.
