¿Qué es LangChain?

LangChain is an open-source framework for building applications and AI agents powered by large language models (LLMs). With over 118,000 GitHub stars, it is the world's largest LLM framework, supporting integration with major LLM providers including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google AI. It comprehensively provides the functionality needed for AI agent construction: prompt chaining, memory management, tool calling, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation). The LangGraph companion project enables building stateful multi-agent applications. LangSmith (paid) streamlines agent monitoring, evaluation, and debugging.
