The most widely-used framework for building LLM-powered applications, available in Python and JavaScript. Provides abstractions for chains, agents, RAG, memory, tool usage, and structured output. Integrates with 100+ LLM providers, vector stores, document loaders, and tools. LangSmith offers tracing and evaluation. LangGraph enables stateful, multi-agent workflows with cycles. 100K+ GitHub stars. The de facto standard for LLM application development despite growing alternatives like LlamaIndex.

Python framework for orchestrating autonomous AI agents that collaborate to accomplish complex tasks. Define agents with specific roles, goals, and backstories, then organize them into crews with sequential or parallel task execution. Supports tool usage (web search, file I/O, API calls), memory, delegation between agents, and human-in-the-loop input. Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, local models, and more. 25K+ GitHub stars. Leading multi-agent framework alongside LangGraph and AutoGen.
LangGraph is LangChain's framework for building stateful, multi-actor AI agent applications as controllable graphs. It models workflows as nodes and edges, enabling cycles, branching, and human-in-the-loop patterns that simple chains cannot express. Features built-in persistence for conversation memory, streaming support, and fault tolerance. Provides fine-grained control over execution flow while supporting single-agent and multi-agent architectures with shared or independent state.
