Introducing Weiqi Roadmap

Weiqi Roadmap started as my study notes and has grown into a guide for learning Go/Baduk/Weiqi. Follow the rank-based roadmap, browse the resource directory, or find books for your level.

The resource directory now has dedicated pages for places to play, databases, tools, puzzles, AI, video lectures, books, and paid or freemium resources.
