I will say Langchain is more for orchestrating LLM, so it’s not really about agents or agents coordination like KaibanJS. (We do use Langchain behind the scenes for some of that). LangGraph while focused on agents, is super low level. you can do complex stuff, but the learning curve is bit high. I also think it could take better advantage of the JS ecosystem (like state management and deeper React/Node.js integration). But this is my personal opinion.
yep, that’s the idea. make it easier for JS devs to work with agents without needing to get into all the low level stuff. but leaving doors open to do more deep ones.
but for multi-agent systems, and AI in general Javascript options are pretty limited. And finding one that integrates easily with react, next, node, handles state management, etc? that's been tricky
How does KaibanJS compare to something like langchain or langgraph. Are they trying to solve similar problems?

So KaibanJS sounds like it’s more focused on making things easier for JS devs who want to work with agents, right?

ok ok , good luck with it. Seems like an interesting project. I’ll keep an eye on it
Any questions or feedback. Please let me know :)
Another javascript framework… Do we really need more of these?

Multi agent systems in javascript? javascript is the last thing I’d use for anything serious like AI
haha, I get the skeptcism but JS is everywhere in web dev. lot of devs want to stay in the JS ecosystem.
Javaccripts been evolving fast, and there is a huge community behind it
Big community or not it still sounds like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. But whatever good luck!!!
JS was not built for half the things it’s doing today. But it does it :)
Yep. Javascript is everywhere and with tools improving constantly.
