🧠 What is the BRAINWiki?

BRAINWiki entries aren’t just written — they’re architected using the BRAIN Technique to guide learning from curiosity to clarity to action.

• 🌐 Background: Set the stage. Why it matters.
• 🔍 Request: The core question or topic.
• 📈 Additional Info: Examples, analogies, visuals.
• ❓ Inquiry: Questions to think deeper.
• 🚀 Next Steps: Take action, explore more.

Start with a question. Leave with clarity. Brain it out.

Purpose: Set the stage. Make it matter.

This section orients the reader by explaining where the topic comes from, why it’s relevant, and how it connects historically or contextually. Use origin stories, cultural relevance, or metaphors that anchor understanding.

Purpose: Focus the mind.

This is the question at the heart of the entry. Clarify what the user is trying to understand, explore, or solve. Make it conversational and curiosity-driven.

• What is this, really?
• Who does this affect or benefit?
• How does it actually work?
• Why do people do it this way?
• What’s the tradeoff or controversy?

Purpose: Expand the mind. Break it down.

This section includes data, visuals, breakdowns, and analogies. It’s where users understand how something works, why it matters, or what it connects to.

• Use bullet points, flow diagrams, and story-based examples.
• Layer insights for beginner → expert clarity.

Purpose: Spark reflection. Activate the learner.

This is where the reader engages. Ask critical thinking questions, offer scenarios, or provoke debates. Make the knowledge stick and stretch.

Purpose: Keep momentum. Drive action.
