How does beam rank RAG tools?

Beam fuses five orthogonal signals into a single velocity score: code activity, package adoption, research citation, sentiment, and production signals. The score multiplies across signals, so any one signal collapsing pulls the whole score down — that's how beam catches stars-up-commits-down decay. Full methodology at /about/methodology.

Is microsoft/generative-ai-for-beginners actively maintained?

See the live status check at /tools/2004/status for the direct-answer verdict, last-commit timestamp, and 90-day velocity chart. Beam refreshes daily.
