Are there any ressources tutorials

At a glance

The community member is looking for resources and tutorials beyond the official documentation to better understand the capabilities and use cases of llamaIndex. They want to know when to use a list index versus a keyword table index or a vector index. A community member responds that the documentation is being improved, and in the meantime, the community member can refer to the use cases guide which suggests using a list index for summarization queries and a vector index for fact-based retrieval queries.

Useful resources
Are there any ressources / tutorials beside the docs to get a better understanding of what llamaIndex does and what possibilities there are? I understand the docs but i want to know when to use a list index or if a keyword table index is better than a vector index and so on. This is my first time dipping into the ai area so i dont have a lot of background.

Hey @Tobi we're actively working on improving the documentation. in the meantime these docs should give you some sense of the different use cases: https://gpt-index.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/use_cases.html. Use a list index for summarization queries, use a vector index for fact-based retrieval queries
