Repository for all of the code written for the FreeCodeCamp LangGraph Course, including solutions for all exercises. This repo provides practical examples of using LangGraph for building agent-based applications through Python scripts and interactive Jupyter notebooks.

LangGraph is a Python framework for designing and managing the flow of tasks in your application using graph structures. This course demonstrates LangGraph concepts through step-by-step exercises, agent implementations, and Jupyter notebooks.

Notable Directories:

• Agents/: Python scripts for agents such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and document drafting.
• Exercises/: Jupyter notebooks for each exercise (e.g. Exercise_Graph1.ipynb).
• Graphs/: Notebooks demonstrating LangGraph patterns (e.g., Hello World, Looping).

git clone https://github.com/rdtiv/LangGraph-Course.git
cd LangGraph-Course

brew update
brew install pyenv

Add the following to your ~/.zshrc if it's not already there:

export PYENV_ROOT="$HOME/.pyenv"
export PATH="$PYENV_ROOT/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(pyenv init --path)"
eval "$(pyenv init -)"

Restart your terminal or source your ~/.zshrc:

source ~/.zshrc

pyenv install 3.12.6
pyenv local 3.12.6

pipx install uv           # Recommended, or:
pip install --user uv

If you don't have pipx, install it with:

brew install pipx
pipx ensurepath

uv venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

uv pip install -r requirements.txt

If you need API keys (such as for OpenAI), create a .env file in the root directory:

echo "OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_key" > .env
# Add other variables as needed

uv pip install jupyterlab  # Only if not already installed
jupyter lab

• Open and run Jupyter notebooks in Graphs/ and Exercises/ for hands-on practice and exploration.
• Run agent scripts in Agents/ for more advanced experiments.
• All code is designed to work in a local, isolated Python environment managed by pyenv and uv.

• Explore the Exercises/ directory for self-contained solutions to LangGraph problems.
• Example notebooks:
  • Exercise_Graph1.ipynb: Agent state and basic graph usage.
  • Exercise_Graph2.ipynb: User input and graph visualization.
  • Exercise_Graph3.ipynb: Personalization and skills-based responses.
  • Exercise_Graph4.ipynb, Exercise_Graph5.ipynb: Advanced graph operations.
