Developing RAG and Agent Applications with LangChain: A Case Study of an AI Assistant for Activity Components
The article outlines a step‑by‑step methodology for creating Retrieval‑Augmented Generation and custom Agent applications with LangChain, illustrated by an AI assistant for activity components that evolves from a rapid Dify prototype to a LangChain‑based RAG system and finally a hand‑crafted ReAct‑style agent, detailing LCEL chain composition, vector‑search integration, model performance trade‑offs, and a unified routing layer.
