Developing LLM Applications with LangChain

Intermediate 3 hours English Course Certificate
Our recommendation
The build-it course in DataCamp's LLM cluster. Over about three hours you use LangChain to assemble LLM-powered applications — chaining prompts and models, and adding retrieval so apps can answer from your own data. Practical and hands-on, aimed at people who can already code Python and want to build real LLM apps. API usage is billed separately.

Good for: Building real LLM applications with LangChain in Python.

Less suitable if: You cannot code Python or want concepts rather than building.

Is this course right for you?

A good fit if you…

You can code Python
You want to build LLM apps
You want hands-on LangChain practice

Consider something else if you…

You cannot yet code Python
You want concepts, not building
You want a no-code course

Requirements: Python; familiarity with LLM basics; an API key (usage billed separately).

Realistic time: Around 3 hours.

About this course

Developing LLM Applications with LangChain is the build-it course in this cluster. Over three hours you use LangChain's framework to assemble LLM-powered applications: chaining prompts and models, adding retrieval so apps can answer from your own data (RAG), and wiring up agents that can take actions.

What you'll learn

Build LLM applications with the LangChain framework
Compose chains that combine prompts and models
Implement retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
Create agents that can call tools and take actions
Work with both OpenAI and Hugging Face models
Develop a chatbot backed by your own documents
