# langchain vs langflow

langchain and langflow share 7 technologies: OpenAI, AIOHTTP, SQLAlchemy, LangChain, exa-py, pillow, and Pydantic. Both are written in Python.

- [langchain-ai/langchain](https://seerepo.com/r/langchain-ai/langchain): The agent engineering platform.
- [langflow-ai/langflow](https://seerepo.com/r/langflow-ai/langflow): Langflow is a powerful tool for building and deploying AI-powered agents and workflows.

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: OpenAI, AIOHTTP, SQLAlchemy, LangChain, exa-py, pillow, Pydantic
- Only in langchain: chromadb, langchain-openai, LangGraph, langchain-text-splitters, langsmith, tiktoken, Ollama, groq
- Only in langflow: FastAPI, pyarrow, oracledb, Redis, Google, uvicorn, Vite, React, react-router-dom, Rich, cryptography, pyjwt, bcrypt, google-auth-oauthlib, firecrawl-py, langchain-classic, MCP, defusedxml, pypdf, markitdown, jsonschema, msgspec, validators, psutil, loguru, boto3, Tailwind CSS, class-variance-authority, tailwind-merge, xyflow, Radix UI, ag-grid-community, Framer, react-hotkeys-hook, use-stick-to-bottom, react-syntax-highlighter, ace-builds, Headless UI, cmdk, elkjs, react-day-picker, react-error-boundary, react-sortablejs, reactflow, Lucide, react-icons, @radix-ui/react-icons, react-markdown, remark-gfm, dompurify, rehype-sanitize, rehype-raw

## Side by side

| Size | 426,036 lines written, 1,654 code files | 1,446,517 lines written, 3,937 code files |
| Who writes it | 0.3% of its commits signed by AI. With GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Gemini CLI | 1.5% of its commits signed by AI. With Claude Code, CodeRabbit, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Codex, and Warp |
| Activity | Last push November 4, 2026, 17,017 commits, 148,995 stars | Last push November 4, 2026, 17,600 commits, 156,316 stars |
| Tests | 895 test files. 16.4% of its code files have a test that imports them | 3,083 test files. 35.1% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
