Langchain Experiments App

Hosted: Link

Github: Repo

Goal

I used this project as an opportunity to gain experience building LLM enabled apps with the Langchain framework. Additionally, I took this as an opportunity to try out Remix, a React framework.

The goal was to experiment with some of the prebuilt functionalities in Langchain using OpenAI's API so that I had some experience to bring to future projects.

Process

I started the project with Remix's Indie Stack Template

Given that this project was meant as a learning experience I did not prioritize building very maintainable code.

Instead, I explored Langchain's API piece by piece, creating small demos of the off the shelf functionality that the framework offers.

Next Steps & Lessons

With the benefit of hindsight, it probably didn't make sense to explore too new frameworks at the same time. I think I worked around Remix rather than learning how to use it properly because I was focused on using Langchain. I will probably revisit Remix in the future.

With that said, this experience with Langchain was extremely valuable when I used the framework at work at Valence Labs shortly after finishing my experiments.

While I may not be proud of the quality of code within this codebase, it was a great learning experience and a fun opportunity to tinker.
