Thank you. It is true, indeed the material does assume some prior knowledge (which I mention in the introduction). In particular: being proficient in Python, or at least in one high-level programming language, be familiar with deep learning and neural networks, and - to get into the theory and mathematics (optional) - basic calculus, algebra, statistics, and probability theory.
Nonetheless, especially for RL foundations, I found that a practical understanding of the algorithms at a basic level, writing them yourself, and "playing" with them and their results (especially in small toy settings like the grid world) provided the best way to start getting a basic intuition in the field. Hence, this resource :)
