## What it is
A collection of Jupyter notebooks teaching how to build Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications, from basic pipelines to advanced techniques like multi-querying, routing, and custom RAG builds. It serves as a hands-on tutorial resource using LangChain, OpenAI embeddings, and vector stores such as ChromaDB and Pinecone.

## Use cases
- learn how to build a rag application
- tutorial for retrieval augmented generation with langchain
- build a rag chatbot from scratch
- understand multi-query rag pipelines
- learn semantic and logical routing for rag
- set up vector store retrieval with chromadb or pinecone

## When to choose
- you want a step-by-step, notebook-based introduction to RAG
- you are learning LangChain and vector store integration
- you need boilerplate starter code for a customizable RAG chatbot
- you want to explore advanced retrieval techniques like multi-querying and query routing

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready RAG framework rather than educational notebooks
- you want a maintained library with a stable API to depend on
- you need a non-Python or no-API-key solution
- you require a permissive license for commercial reuse
