A step-by-step tutorial of interactive Python notebooks teaching value-based deep reinforcement learning, progressing from DQN through its key improvements (Double DQN, Prioritized Experience Replay, Dueling Networks, NoisyNet, Categorical DQN, N-step learning) to Rainbow and Rainbow IQN. Each chapter pairs theoretical background with object-oriented PyTorch implementations that run in the cloud via molab or locally with marimo.

Use cases

• learn deep reinforcement learning from scratch
• understand how DQN works with code
• implement rainbow RL in pytorch
• tutorial on prioritized experience replay
• study dueling networks and noisy nets
• understand distributional reinforcement learning
• run RL notebook examples in the browser
• step-by-step guide from DQN to Rainbow

When to choose

• You want to learn value-based deep RL methods with annotated, runnable PyTorch code
• You prefer theory paired with clean object-oriented implementations in interactive notebooks
• You want zero-setup cloud execution of RL examples via molab

When to avoid

• You need a production-ready RL library or framework rather than educational notebooks
• You are looking for policy-gradient methods like PPO or A2C (see PG is All You Need instead)
• You need scalable or distributed RL training infrastructure
