In this tutorial we want to present a thorough overview about the well known technique known as the Reaction Coordinate Mapping which is one of the most used theoretical tool in the context of Open quantum system and Quantum thermodynamics of quantum systems which is not weakly coupled to the reservoir. Here we discuss different aspects of the Reaction Coordinate mapping along with detailed mathematical derivations for the Bosonic and Fermionic mappings which can be achieved through the Symplectic and unitary transformations. In the later part of this article we discuss the derivation of the Quantum master equation for the extended systems (System+Reaction Coordinate) coupled to the residual reservoir in the weak coupling limit described by the usual Redfield Quantum Master equation. We observe that though the dynamics of the Extended system is Markovian in nature because of the weak coupling between the extended system and the Residual reservoir but the Reaction coordinate transformation enables us to analyses the dynamics of the system which is essentially non-Markovian.
