Congratulations on hitting 1.0, Keras really looks like the way forward for python ML. I tried to use Keras after doing Andrew Ng's Coursera course but found that I just couldn't connect the dots from what I'd learned on the course to the concepts assumed familiar by the keras documentation though.

Yes, I think we should work on a FAQ to introduce common ML concepts and their implementation in Keras. Any specific concept that you had trouble with?

Cool. It sounds dumb but just shaping the inputs was a problem for me. I wanted an LSTM/RNN but epochs, batches and recurring sequences didn't click together for me. I also had trouble plotting the learning curves.

You may wish to coordinate a bit with this?: http://www.wildml.com/deep-learning-glossary/

I came across that glossary a few days ago when looking to solve an RNN problem with a deadline. You may be pleased to know I think I may have solved it by switching to Keras, and this post actually helped unsticking me from a smaller problem too. Thanks, and congratulations on version 1.0!
