## Quick Install
`pip install langchain`
## 🤔 What is this?
Large language models (LLMs) are emerging as a transformative technology, enabling
developers to build applications that they previously could not.
But using these LLMs in isolation is often not enough to
create a truly powerful app - the real power comes when you are able to
combine them with other sources of computation or knowledge.
This library is aimed at assisting in the development of those types of applications.
## 📖 Documentation
Please see [here](https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?) for full documentation on:
- Getting started (installation, setting up environment, simple examples)
- How-To examples (demos, integrations, helper functions)
- Reference (full API docs)
- Resources (high level explanation of core concepts)
## 🚀 What can this help with?
There are four main areas that LangChain is designed to help with.
These are, in increasing order of complexity:
1. LLM and Prompts
2. Chains
3. Agents
4. Memory
For more information on these concepts, please see our [full documentation](https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?).
