AI Agent Engineering Platform built on an Open Source TypeScript AI Agent Framework
The JavaScript/TypeScript version of LangChain - the agent engineering platform
langchainjs is an open-source ai agents project by langchain-ai (langchain-ai/langchainjs on GitHub). It has 18,248 GitHub stars and 3,422 forks, is released under the MIT license, and was last updated on GitHub on 8 October 2026.
Decide the model, tools and data your agent or chain needs.
Install langchain from npm with npm, pnpm or yarn - no clone needed for normal use.
Install the integration package for your model provider and set its API key.
Compose a prompt, model and tool, run it, and iterate.
Call different LLM providers through one consistent interface and swap models with minimal code changes.
Tools, prompts, memory and retrievers composed into chains and agents.
First-party packages connect LangChain.js to major model providers, vector stores and tools.
Supported environments include Node.js and other JavaScript runtimes per the README.
Part of the LangChain ecosystem, so you can graduate to LangGraph agents and LangSmith observability.
Ships full TypeScript types for editor-friendly development.
Get the source code from GitHub and enter the project directory.
git clone https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchainjs.git
cd langchainjsInstall the core package with your package manager of choice.
npm install -S langchainImport from the package in your TypeScript app and follow the docs' first-agent examples.
import { ChatOpenAI } from "@langchain/openai"; // example provider package - see README resourcesIt is maintained by LangChain AI (langchain-ai) and contributors on GitHub.
Yes - LangChain.js is MIT licensed and free. Optional hosted services in the ecosystem (such as LangSmith) have their own pricing.
The framework is free, but the models you call usually need your own provider API keys; local model integrations are also available.
Compared with the Python LangChain, this is the same platform philosophy for JavaScript/TypeScript stacks; compared with writing raw provider SDK calls, it adds portable abstractions at the cost of another layer to learn.
Run npm install -S langchain, add your provider's integration package, and follow the documentation linked in the README.
