LangChain overview
LLM application framework for building chains, agents, and RAG pipelines. Provides abstractions for prompt templates, output parsers, document loaders, vector stores, memory, and tool calling. The Python package is the primary implementation with a TypeScript port (LangChain.js) also available. LangSmith provides observability and evaluation for LangChain applications.
