monarchwadia··on Why we no longer use LangChain for building our AI agents
I'm the author of Ragged, a lightweight connector that makes it easy to connect to and work wth language models. Think about it like an ORM for LLMs --- a unified interface designed to make it easy to work with LLMs. Just wanted to plug my framework in case people are looking for an alternative to building their own connector components.

Author here. It's very easy for us to be blinded by our pride. Yes, we've made a lot of progress in very little time. But we have a lot to learn, and a cross-disciplinary approach to development will help us all learn from other professionals. There's a lot to be said for generational experience.

This library aims to replicate code evaluation functionality in Repl.it, Code Academy and TestDome. The server mode is conveniently included for you in the library's CLI (all you have to do is run `npm install -g medieval` and then type `medieval serve` to have a code evaluation server up and running

Evaluation is done inside Docker, so it is much safer than just running the code bare on your machine itself.
