Course Outline
Introduction to LangGraph and Graph Concepts
- Understanding the role of graphs in LLM applications: orchestration versus simple chains.
- Core components: nodes, edges, and state within LangGraph.
- Hello LangGraph: creating your first runnable graph.
State Management and Prompt Chaining
- Designing prompts as distinct graph nodes.
- Transmitting state between nodes and managing outputs.
- Memory patterns: distinguishing between short-term and persisted context.
Branching, Control Flow, and Error Handling
- Conditional routing and multi-path workflows.
- Strategies for retries, timeouts, and fallbacks.
- Ensuring idempotency and safe re-execution.
Tools and External Integrations
- Invoking functions and tools from within graph nodes.
- Calling REST APIs and services directly within the graph.
- Managing structured outputs.
Retrieval-Augmented Workflows
- Basics of document ingestion and chunking.
- Utilizing embeddings and vector stores (e.g., ChromaDB).
- Generating grounded answers with citations.
Testing, Debugging, and Evaluation
- Implementing unit-style tests for nodes and paths.
- Tracing and observability techniques.
- Quality assessments: verifying factuality, safety, and determinism.
Packaging and Deployment Fundamentals
- Environment setup and dependency management.
- Serving graphs via APIs.
- Versioning workflows and executing rolling updates.
Summary and Next Steps
Requirements
