LangChain Zero to Mastery

About:
This repository is a comprehensive guide to mastering LangChain, a framework for building applications with large language models. The series provides hands-on projects to help users learn core concepts such as document processing with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), chains, memory, and custom agent creation. Each part includes structured implementations and practical examples.

Structure

1. Introduction to LangChain

Directory: 1-Introduction-to-LangChain/
This module provides an overview of LangChain and its key components. Topics include:

• What is LangChain? An introduction to its purpose and architecture.
• Basic Setup: Instructions for installing LangChain and configuring API keys.
• LLM Interaction: How to create and query basic chains using OpenAI’s GPT models.

Outcome: Familiarizes users with the foundational elements of LangChain and sets up the environment for future modules.

2. Chains and Memory

Directory: 2-Chains-Memories/
This module explores the concept of chains and memory in LangChain. Key topics include:

• Simple Chains: How to link prompts and outputs to create pipelines.
• Memory Integration: Storing and retrieving context to maintain continuity across interactions.
• Practical Examples: Use cases such as conversational agents and sequential workflows.

Outcome: Teaches users to build dynamic and interactive applications using chains and memory in LangChain.

3. Document Processing with RAG

Directory: 3-Document-Processing-with-RAG/
This module demonstrates how to process documents using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Key steps include:

• Document Splitting: Breaking large documents into smaller, manageable chunks.
• Embedding Generation: Creating vectorized representations using OpenAI embeddings.
• Vector Store Creation: Building a FAISS vector database for efficient retrieval.
• Query Handling: Integrating the vector store with LangChain agents for question-answering.

Outcome: Enables users to build robust document-based Q&A systems using LangChain and RAG techniques.

4. Custom Agents and Tool Integration

Directory: 4-Custom-Agents-and-Tool-Integration/
This module focuses on creating custom agents and integrating tools with LangChain. Key highlights include:

• Defining Tools:
