Join the
LangChain Community

Our community is filled with smart and helpful individuals who share our commitment to advancing the field of generative AI. We’re dedicated to maintaining the spirit of this community and creating a welcoming environment for learning.

These guidelines have been created to help everyone understand how to best engage and contribute. We appreciate your support in building a community we can all be proud of!

Please note our Slack Community is not an official support channel. If you’re looking for customer support, please reach out to support@langchain.dev.
Expectations for all Members
Rule 1: Respect All Members
We strive to bring a positive and rewarding experience for everyone in this community. Therefore, we have zero tolerance for any form of disrespectful behavior. Treat others as you would like to be treated and assume best intentions. We want to create a space where people lift each other up and encourage each other’s work. We have all seen dark corners of the internet riddled with pessimism and harsh critique. While feedback is welcome and solicited regularly in the community, we want to be defined by collective optimism and support.

We ask everyone to use real identities because we want you to be mindful of your tone and discourse in all forums. When in doubt, pay extra consideration if your words are constructive and supportive, and contribute to making the space a place one in which people can share and create freely.

All participants in LangChain Community spaces – including Slack, code repositories, and meetups – must adhere to the Community Code of Conduct. If you cannot comply with these guidelines, we ask that you refrain from participating in the community. We will remove people from the community who do not follow our conduct guidelines.
Rule 2: Practice Proper Messaging Etiquette
Ensure your questions are carefully considered, send your question in a single message, use threads, and post in the appropriate channels. If you are sharing a large snippet of code, put it in the thread of your message. Do not seek extra attention by tagging individuals, double-posting, or bumping your message by sending to the channel.
Rule 3: Default to Using Public Channels
By default, keep interactions public in LangChain Community spaces. If someone is directly messaging you in a way that doesn’t uphold the values of the community or is against the Code of Conduct, you are encouraged to report behavior to community@langchain.dev.
Rule 4: Do Not Solicit
This community is designed for developers to share their work, ideas, and learnings. It is not meant for lead generation by vendors or recruiters. Any vendors or recruiters soliciting members will be permanently banned from the community.
Vendor Expectations

Vendors typically include individuals from companies offering products or services aimed at our LangChain Community. This category also covers recruiters, investors, open-source maintainers (whether they have a paid offering or not), consultants, and freelancers. When in doubt, it's best to be cautious.

As a vendor, you are part of this community, and we encourage your full participation. We’ve observed that those who engage with the intention of sharing, rather than pitching, build great user relationships for their products. Conversely, community members can easily sense when they are being treated as an audience or resource for monetization, which often leads to a negative response.

Vendors must keep promotional content within designated areas.The LangChain community is primarily a non-commercial space. Unsolicited DMs will not be tolerated. For community members interested in staying updated with the AI industry, the Community Slack provides several spaces for vendors to share promotional material:

  • #vendor-content
  • #events
  • #vendor- specific channels
Recruiters may also post in #jobs but may not solicit applications in DMs.

The definition of "vendor content" can sometimes be unclear, and we rely our members' judgment in these cases. Generally, if the content is hosted on a site controlled by the company or its employees (including platforms like Substack and Medium) or includes a call-to-action such as signing up for a mailing list or trial account, it will likely be considered promotional.
