Course Outline

Introduction to LangGraph and Graph Concepts

  • Utilizing graphs for LLM applications: orchestrating complex flows versus simple chains
  • Understanding nodes, edges, and state within LangGraph
  • Getting started with LangGraph: building your first runnable graph

State Management and Prompt Chaining

  • Structuring prompts as graph nodes
  • Managing state transitions between nodes and handling outputs
  • Implementing memory patterns: distinguishing between short-term and persisted context

Branching, Control Flow, and Error Handling

  • Conditional routing and designing multi-path workflows
  • Strategies for retries, timeouts, and fallback mechanisms
  • Ensuring idempotency and safe re-execution

Tools and External Integrations

  • Invoking functions and tools from graph nodes
  • Interacting with REST APIs and external services within the graph
  • Working effectively with structured outputs

Retrieval-Augmented Workflows

  • Basics of document ingestion and chunking
  • Understanding embeddings and vector stores (e.g., ChromaDB)
  • Providing grounded answers with proper citations

Testing, Debugging, and Evaluation

  • Conducting unit-style tests for nodes and pathways
  • Implementing tracing and observability features
  • Performing quality checks for factuality, safety, and determinism

Packaging and Deployment Fundamentals

  • Setting up environments and managing dependencies
  • Deploying graphs via APIs
  • Managing workflow versioning and executing rolling updates

Summary and Next Steps
