Introduction | 🦜️🔗 LangChain

LangChain is a framework for developing applications powered by large language models (LLMs).

LangChain simplifies every stage of the LLM application lifecycle:

• Development: Build your applications using LangChain's open-source building blocks, components, and third-party integrations. Use LangGraph to build stateful agents with first-class streaming and human-in-the-loop support.
• Productionization: Use LangSmith to inspect, monitor and evaluate your chains, so that you can continuously optimize and deploy with confidence.
• Deployment: Turn your LangGraph applications into production-ready APIs and Assistants with LangGraph Cloud.

Concretely, the framework consists of the following open-source libraries:

• langchain-core: Base abstractions and LangChain Expression Language.
• langchain-community: Third party integrations.
  • Partner packages (e.g. langchain-openai, langchain-anthropic, etc.): Some integrations have been further split into their own lightweight packages that only depend on langchain-core.
• langchain: Chains, agents, and retrieval strategies that make up an application's cognitive architecture.
• LangGraph: Build robust and stateful multi-actor applications with LLMs by modeling steps as edges and nodes in a graph. Integrates smoothly with LangChain, but can be used without it.
• LangServe: Deploy LangChain chains as REST APIs.
• LangSmith: A developer platform that lets you debug, test, evaluate, and monitor LLM applications.

note

These docs focus on the Python LangChain library. Head here for docs on the JavaScript LangChain library.

If you're looking to build something specific or are more of a hands-on learner, check out our tutorials section. This is the best place to get started.

These are the best ones to get started with:

• Build a Simple LLM Application
• Build a Chatbot
• Build an Agent
• Introduction to LangGraph

Explore the full list of LangChain tutorials here, and check out other LangGraph tutorials here. To learn more about LangGraph, check out our first LangChain Academy course, Introduction to LangGraph, available here.

Here you’ll find short answers to “How do I….?” types of questions. These how-to guides don’t cover topics in depth – you’ll find that material in the Tutorials and the API Reference. However, these guides will help you quickly accomplish common tasks.

Check out LangGraph-specific how-tos here.

Introductions to all the key parts of LangChain you’ll need to know! Here you'll find high level explanations of all LangChain concepts.

For a deeper dive into LangGraph concepts, check out this page.

Head to the reference section for full documentation of all classes and methods in the LangChain Python packages.

Trace and evaluate your language model applications and intelligent agents to help you move from prototype to production.

Build stateful, multi-actor applications with LLMs. Integrates smoothly with LangChain, but can be used without it.

See what changed in v0.2, learn how to migrate legacy code, and read up on our release/versioning policies, and more.

Read up on security best practices to make sure you're developing safely with LangChain.

LangChain is part of a rich ecosystem of tools that integrate with our framework and build on top of it. Check out our growing list of integrations.
