Lang Chain

LangChain is a framework for developing context-aware applications powered by language models. It consists of libraries, templates, and tools to simplify the application development lifecycle including LangChain Libraries for building modular components, off-the-shelf chains, LangServe for deploying chains as APIs, and LangSmith for testing and monitoring chains. The LangChain libraries provide composable tools and integrations for language models as well as built-in assemblages of components to accomplish tasks.

Introduction

LangChain is a framework for developing applications powered by language models.


It enables applications that:

 Are context-aware: connect a language model to sources of context (prompt


instructions, few shot examples, content to ground its response in, etc.)
 Reason: rely on a language model to reason (about how to answer based on
provided context, what actions to take, etc.)

This framework consists of several parts.

 LangChain Libraries: The Python and JavaScript libraries. Contains interfaces


and integrations for a myriad of components, a basic run time for combining
these components into chains and agents, and off-the-shelf implementations
of chains and agents.
 LangChain Templates: A collection of easily deployable reference
architectures for a wide variety of tasks.
 LangServe: A library for deploying LangChain chains as a REST API.
 LangSmith: A developer platform that lets you debug, test, evaluate, and
monitor chains built on any LLM framework and seamlessly integrates with
LangChain.
Together, these products simplify the entire application lifecycle:

 Develop: Write your applications in LangChain/LangChain.js. Hit the ground


running using Templates for reference.
 Productionize: Use LangSmith to inspect, test and monitor your chains, so
that you can constantly improve and deploy with confidence.
 Deploy: Turn any chain into an API with LangServe.

LangChain Libraries
The main value props of the LangChain packages are:

1. Components: composable tools and integrations for working with language


models. Components are modular and easy-to-use, whether you are using the
rest of the LangChain framework or not
2. Off-the-shelf chains: built-in assemblages of components for accomplishing
higher-level tasks

Off-the-shelf chains make it easy to get started. Components make it easy to


customize existing chains and build new ones.

The LangChain libraries themselves are made up of several different packages.

 langchain-core: Base abstractions and LangChain Expression Language.


 langchain-community: Third party integrations.
 langchain: Chains, agents, and retrieval strategies that make up an
application's cognitive architecture.
