Why This List
Most AI awesome lists are too broad, too stale, or too academic.
This repo is for builders who want to ship real products with modern generative AI:
- Practical entry points across agents, MCP, speech, vision, and model APIs
- Curated links that are useful for implementation, not just hype
- Faster path selection instead of endless scrolling through generic lists
If you are building agentic apps, voice products, multimodal workflows, or AI-powered developer tools, start here.
Start Here
Pick one path and get moving in under 10 minutes:
- Build AI agents: AI Agents
- Build speech products: STT Models, TTS Models
- Build visual products: Text-to-Image, Talking Head
- Build model apps: Transformers, GenAI APIs
- Add tool integration: MCP Servers
Top Picks
If you only open a few sections, start with these:
| Area | Best Starting Point | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Agentic apps | AI Agents | Frameworks, coding agents, memory systems, and orchestration tools |
| Tool-using LLMs | MCP Servers | Quick map of the MCP ecosystem and the most useful server categories |
| Voice AI | TTS Models, STT Models | Core stack for assistants, call automation, and speech UX |
| Visual generation | Text-to-Image, Talking Head | Useful for multimodal products, synthetic media, and creator tools |
| Model integration | GenAI APIs, Transformers | Compare hosted APIs and open model tooling quickly |
Build Paths
1. Agentic Apps
- Start: AI Agents
- Add memory and context: context-engineering.md
- Add tool integration: mcp.md
- Best for: coding agents, assistants, workflow automation, and multi-agent systems
2. Voice and Audio Products
- Speech recognition: stt-models.md, stt-datasets.md
- Speech synthesis: tts.md, voice-cloning.md
- Emotion and affect: emotion-recognition.md
- Best for: call agents, speech interfaces, dubbing, and voice cloning pipelines
3. Vision and Video Products
- Image generation: text-to-image.md
- Talking avatars: talking-head.md
- Best for: creative tools, avatars, media generation, and synthetic presenters
4. Foundation Model Productization
- Model selection: transformers.md
- API integrations: genai-apis.md
- Best for: choosing between open-source models, APIs, and deployment approaches
Resource Index
