I'm not an expert in this field either, but I have been following the development of the Focus Fusion reactor being developed by Lawrenceville Plasma Physics, which is where I was introduced to the concept of aneutronic fusion. This video is a fairly decent introduction to their approach (note that the plan is to use the standard deuterium fuel first as it's cheaper and easier to work with, but the design can potentially support an aneutronic fuel such as pB11 in the future):
