03. Modern Stack: ReAct with LangChain
Comparing the "From Scratch" ReAct implementation with LangChain.
In 01_react_scratch, we built an agent loop manually using while loops and Regex parsing.
This notebook demonstrates how LangChain simplifies this process into just a few lines of code.
Key Concepts
- LCEL (LangChain Expression Language): Declarative way to compose chains.
- LangChain Hub: Pulling pre-tested prompts (e.g.,
hwchase17/react). - AgentExecutor: Automatic handling of the Thought-Action-Observation loop.
