πŸ’‘ Scores are based on community feedback, documentation quality, and feature completeness (1=poor, 5=excellent)

πŸ† LangChain Wins

Dominates in integrations and ecosystem maturity. Best if you need breadth and don't mind complexity.

πŸ‘₯ Multi-Agent Leaders

AutoGen and CrewAI excel at multi-agent coordination. CrewAI has better DX, AutoGen has more features.

πŸ“š Learning Curve

CrewAI is easiest to learn, LangChain steepest. Semantic Kernel best for C# developers.

πŸ”’ Enterprise Choice

Semantic Kernel wins for enterprise with Microsoft backing, multi-language support, and Azure integration.

🎯 Decision Framework

1.
Identify must-have features (e.g., multi-agent, RAG, specific LLM)
2.
Consider team expertise (Python vs C#, learning curve tolerance)
3.
Evaluate ecosystem (community size, integrations, documentation)
4.
Prototype quickly (spend 2-4 hours testing top 2 options)
