New to LangChain or LLM app development in general? Read this material to quickly get up and
running building your first applications.

Get started
Familiarize yourself with LangChain's open-source components by building simple applications.

If you're looking to get started with chat models, vector stores, or other LangChain components
from a specific provider, check out our supported integrations.

Chat models and prompts: Build a simple LLM application with prompt templates and chat
models.
Semantic search: Build a semantic search engine over a PDF with document loaders,
embedding models, and vector stores.
Classification: Classify text into categories or labels using chat models with structured
outputs.
Extraction: Extract structured data from text and other unstructured media using chat
models and few-shot examples.

Refer to the how-to guides for more detail on using all LangChain components.

Orchestration
Get started using LangGraph to assemble LangChain components into full-featured
applications.
Chatbots: Build a chatbot that incorporates memory.
Agents: Build an agent that interacts with external tools.
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) Part 1: Build an application that uses your own
documents to inform its responses.
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) Part 2: Build a RAG application that incorporates a
memory of its user interactions and multi-step retrieval.
Question-Answering with SQL: Build a question-answering system that executes SQL
queries to inform its responses.
Summarization: Generate summaries of (potentially long) texts.
Question-Answering with Graph Databases: Build a question-answering system that
queries a graph database to inform its responses.

LangSmith
LangSmith allows you to closely trace, monitor and evaluate your LLM application. It seamlessly
integrates with LangChain, and you can use it to inspect and debug individual steps of your
chains as you build.

LangSmith documentation is hosted on a separate site. You can peruse LangSmith tutorials
here.

Evaluation
LangSmith helps you evaluate the performance of your LLM applications. The tutorial below is a
great way to get started:

Common questions

Powered by AI

Prompt templates are crucial as they standardize the input to chat models, ensuring consistent interaction and results, which is essential for the reliability and effectiveness of LLM applications .

LangGraph can be utilized to assemble LangChain components into full-featured applications, facilitating the orchestration and integration of various components for coherent functionality .

Integration with external tools allows agents within LangChain to access additional data sources and functionalities, thereby expanding their capabilities and enabling them to perform more complex tasks, such as real-time data retrieval or executing tasks beyond the built-in functions .

Embedding models translate text data into a numerical format that captures semantic meaning, which is essential for enabling the semantic search engine to understand and retrieve relevant information based on the meaning rather than simple keyword matching .

Using structured outputs in text classification enhances the clarity and organization of classification results, making it easier to analyze and interpret the data generated by chat models .

Few-shot learning examples enhance data extraction by providing models with additional context and sample interactions, which help the system to generalize from limited information and improve the accuracy and efficiency of data retrieval from text .

LangSmith enhances monitoring and evaluation by allowing developers to trace, monitor, and evaluate each step in the application process, providing insights and debugging tools to improve the application's performance and reliability .

A scenario where RAG with user interaction memory could improve efficiency is in a customer support application where the system remembers previous interactions, enabling it to provide more contextually relevant responses and reduce repetitive information querying from the user .

Building a semantic search engine over a PDF involves loading documents using document loaders, embedding them with models for semantic understanding, and storing these embeddings in vector stores to facilitate efficient searching .

Incorporating memory in chatbots is crucial as it enables the system to recall past interactions, thus creating more personalized and contextually relevant responses, which enhances user satisfaction and interaction quality .
