Improvement in Educational Content

[AustineGwa]

For beginners to ML using the written documentation is a little hard and time consuming as at it is it is currently it is directed to seasoned ML engineers. Provision of beginner concept before the deep dive would be appropriate.

Having a dedicated youtube page or paid courses on LinkedIn , Udemy or cousera would be much better to understand the core concept of ML to beginners before getting to the documentation and trying the examples.

Currently most of this requested content is available majorly in python thereby making the transition to java still difficult.
Support for tribuo content producers(articles ,videos, short courses etc.) should also be enhanced for improved SEO

Our current focus is to develop the documentation for people who are looking for an ML library on the Java platform, and have some understanding of both Java and ML. We explicitly decided not to focus too much on an intro to ML in the docs, as there are many of those available across the internet taught by excellent people who focus on teaching. Any course that teaches the core concepts of ML should give skills that are transferrable to Tribuo, as it implements machine learning algorithms.

That said we're happy to take outside contributions to expand the documentation.

Building longer form video or course level content is outside the scope of our team's work on Tribuo as we'd prefer to focus on building the library in the short to medium term.

Thank you for the feedback, and glad that you accept outside contributions. I am currently working on such content and will link a pull request to this issue soon.
