Hi, I’m Aftab — currently prepping full-time for the LCAE certification, coming from a graphic design background. Starting from Python fundamentals and working through LangChain Academy courses. I’ll be posting key concepts/gotchas I run into here — partly to solidify my own understanding, partly hoping it helps other beginners on the same path.
