Workshop: Building Chatbots with LangGraph + MCP + LangChain

Want to understand how modern AI frameworks like LangGraph, MCP (Model Context Protocol), and LangChain can make chatbot development scalable and fun? In this hands-on workshop, we’ll explore how graph-based modularity helps you design chatbots that are flexible, easy to extend, and ready for real-world use.
You’ll sketch, code, and experiment with chatbot flows built from composable nodes, discovering how MCP principles keep everything clean and maintainable.
