By Deb Kumar Basu on 8/15/2026

This course is exactly what I was looking for. I am a Java developer who is familiar with python. Wanted to start my langchain training. This course looks to be tailor-made for me. Small code snippets, concise explanations, meaningful assignments and gradual prpogress. I am halfway and enjoying every bit of this course. Great work by the instructor!!

By Andrew Hollis on 3/13/2026

This was a great course. Explanations were clear and the instructor made all the topics feel very accessible. I feel like this was an excellent course to get introduced to the topic area. For future courses it might be helpful to include common mistakes and errors when implementing the code as well as alternative ways of doing the same thing. One of the challenges of building LLM apps is that there are multiple ways to accomplish something, but some ways are better than others. Instead of just providing one way (which the instructor does very well), maybe discuss other implementation strategies and compare and contrast. I know that will lengthen the course though. Just a suggestion though, overall, this course definitely accomplished what I was needing it to accomplish for me by introducing me to Langchain and AI app development in an accessible way.

By Rajan Santhanam on 12/22/2025

Best instructor! He explains tough concepts in a clear and concise way. I really love his teaching style. I always learn a lot from Bharath’s courses and feel confident applying the concepts to real‑world problems. I had previously taken his Django course and was able to successfully implement a full solution. I’m excited to continue learning and look forward to more content. I do have one recommendation: it would be great to have hands-on labs included with the course—perhaps using a code pad or similar interactive tools.

By Rajeev Ranjan on 10/6/2025

The instructor has an exceptional delivery style that effortlessly blends clarity with engagement. He use of well-chosen examples makes complex concepts easy to grasp, and his voice tone is incredibly soothing and captivating — it naturally keeps us wanting to listen more. His sessions feel less like lectures and more like insightful conversations, making learning both enjoyable and memorable.

- This course offers a clear and structured introduction to LangChain, making it easy for developers to start building GenAI-powered applications. - I appreciated the hands-on walkthroughs, especially the use of OpenAI and open-source models like Mistral and Gemma via Ollama. - The explanation of PromptTemplates, LCEL, Chunks, Vectors was concise and practical, helping me apply these concepts in real projects. - Overall, this course accelerated my understanding of LangChain and gave me the confidence to architect intelligent LLM apps with clarity and purpose

By Edison Munoz Durango on 6/3/2025

It's definitely one of the best resources to learn about this technology. The content is perfectly structured, pedagogical, clear and concise, making it extremely easy to understand even for someone with zero prior knowledge. This course is absolutely useful and enriching; I've been able to acquire key skills that have directly helped me in my work as an engineer. The step-by-step teaching methodology has allowed me to build real projects without any hassle or confusion. Without a doubt, I would recommend it to anyone interested in GenAI and Langchain. It's truly a gem!

By Lokesh Rangineni on 5/30/2025

The course is very good as a beginner so it exceeded my expectations. It is very good course for the people who are already developers but new to langchain. Straight to the point and good hands on examples. The only improvement agent section is rough a bit more explanation or examples are needed. what kind of value it is adding over prompts. great course overall.

By Panagiotis Georgiadis on 4/24/2025

I would prefer items to be presented with a rationale, instead of sequentially. Explain first what we are aiming to do, and then show the steps we take towards achieving that goal.

By Venkata Gopal Wunnava on 11/23/2024

Installation of packages is an issue. Lots of dependencies need to be resolved based on version of python interpreter being used. It would be good for instructor to talk about that and provide some insight on troubleshooting.I had to research and fix all of that on my own for the langchain related packages.

By Anonymized User on 10/21/2024

Is is a very good course for beginner who just want to start with the langchain. If you could add more advanced contain or another course for advanced feature would be great. There are import which does not work with langchain 0.3.3 which needs to be mentioned. I was using azure open ai custom deployed model. The class used for that start with Azure like AzureChatOpenAI. If this thing are mentioned in the course then it would be flawless. I am really happy with the course.
