Docs refactor (#480)
Big docs refactor! Motivation is to make it easier for people to find
resources they are looking for. To accomplish this, there are now three
main sections:
- Getting Started: steps for getting started, walking through most core
functionality
- Modules: these are different modules of functionality that langchain
provides. Each part here has a "getting started", "how to", "key
concepts" and "reference" section (except in a few select cases where it
didnt easily fit).
- Use Cases: this is to separate use cases (like summarization, question
answering, evaluation, etc) from the modules, and provide a different
entry point to the code base.
There is also a full reference section, as well as extra resources
(glossary, gallery, etc)

Using an LLM in isolation is fine for some simple applications,

but many more complex ones require chaining LLMs - either with each other or with other experts.

LangChain provides a standard interface for Chains, as well as some common implementations of chains for ease of use.
