It's about building RAG systems that can adapt instead of blindly following a fixed pipeline.\n\n**What I built**\n\nI created a collection of self contained notebooks demonstrating different Agentic RAG patterns with LangGraph. Each notebook focuses on a practical pattern that you can understand, experiment with and adapt to your own AI projects.\n\nFree version:\n\n[https://github.com/ChandulaSenevirathna/Agentic_RAG](https://github.com/ChandulaSenevirathna/Agentic_RAG)\n\nAdvanced version:\n\n[https://chandula7.gumroad.com/l/Advanced_RAG_LangGraph_Patterns](https://chandula7.gumroad.com/l/Advanced_RAG_LangGraph_Patterns)\n\nIf you're building RAG applications, this is a step toward moving beyond:\n\nRetrieve → Generate\n\nand toward systems that can\n\nRetrieve → Reason → Verify → Correct → Answer", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/advanced-rag", "canonical_source": "https://dev.to/101_theory/advanced-rag-2ne1", "published_at": "2026-09-08 20:02:13+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-08 20:22:29.207141+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "machine-learning", "large-language-models", "ai-agents", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["LangGraph", "GitHub", "Gumroad", "Chandula Senevirathna"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/advanced-rag", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/advanced-rag.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/advanced-rag.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/advanced-rag.jsonld"}}
