🤖 Python libraries for AI agents — what to study

If you want to develop AI agents in Python, it's important to understand the order of studying libraries.

Start with LangChain, CrewAI or SmolAgents — they allow you to quickly assemble simple agents, connect tools, and test ideas.

The next level is LangGraph, LlamaIndex and Semantic Kernel. These tools are already used for production systems: RAG, orchestration, and complex workflows.

The most complex level is AutoGen, DSPy and A2A. They are needed for autonomous multi-agent systems and optimizing LLM pipelines.
