Module 4
Chains & LCEL

Chains & LCEL Deep Dive

Go beyond single prompts to compose complex multi-step workflows using modern LangChain Expression Language (LCEL).

Module 5
Loaders & Splitters

Document Loaders & Text Splitting

Load external files and split them into semantic chunks to feed into LLM prompts without exceeding token limits.

  • TextLoader, PyPDFLoader, CSVLoader, WebBaseLoader
  • DirectoryLoader for loading folder structures
  • Memory management: load() vs lazy_load()
  • Character vs RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
  • TokenTextSplitter & SemanticChunker
  • Best practices for choosing chunk sizes & overlap

  • Text Embeddings: OpenAI vs local HuggingFace models
  • Cosine similarity math & similarity search
  • FAISS vector database for local storage
  • Chroma DB persistent vector stores
  • Pinecone managed vector DBs
  • VectorStore operations and Retriever interfaces

Module 8
Agents & Memory

AI Agents & Memory

Create autonomous agents that use reasoning loops (ReAct), select external tools, and keep dynamic long-term memories.

  • ReAct reasoning loops (Thought → Action → Observation)
  • Defining custom tools with @tool decorators
  • Built-in tools: search, calculations, python REPL
  • Modern create_react_agent() & AgentExecutor

Frequently Asked Questions

What is RAG and how does LangChain implement it?

RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) is a technique where an LLM retrieves relevant documents from a vector database before generating a response. LangChain implements RAG through document loaders, text splitters, vector stores (like FAISS and Chroma), and retrieval chains. Our free LangChain tutorial covers RAG from scratch with full code examples.

LangChain vs LlamaIndex — which is better?

Both LangChain and LlamaIndex are popular frameworks for building LLM apps. LangChain is more versatile for building chains, agents, and RAG pipelines. LlamaIndex specializes in document indexing and retrieval. For most beginners building GenAI apps in India, LangChain is the better starting point — and GenAIWallah's free LangChain course covers it end-to-end.

How to build an AI agent with LangChain?

To build an AI agent with LangChain, you need to define tools, create a prompt with agent instructions, initialize a LangChain agent (like ReAct or OpenAI Functions agent), and run it with an LLM. Our free LangChain agents module covers this step-by-step with Python code in Hindi and English.

Is this LangChain course free?

Yes. GenAIWallah's LangChain course is completely free — no signup, no paywall. It covers LangChain fundamentals, prompts, chains, RAG, vector stores, agents, and production LLM applications. All content is available in Hindi and English.
