Tech with Mak releases RAG handbook
Tech with Mak’s free PDF distills research-backed guidance into a 30-question handbook covering ingestion, chunking, retrieval, reranking, context packing, attribution, permissions, security, evaluation, and GraphRAG. It targets developers building and debugging production RAG systems.
// ANALYSIS
Its strongest angle is treating RAG as an evidence-access architecture, not a hallucination switch.
- –Separates parsing, retrieval, context assembly, generation, and attribution failures for clearer evaluation.
- –Emphasizes that chunk size, overlap, and top-k require measurement rather than universal defaults.
- –Connects practical design choices to research including Lost in the Middle, RAPTOR, HyDE, Self-RAG, RAGAS, and RAGChecker.
- –Its concise format makes it a useful research map and design checklist, but not a standalone implementation guide.
