You’ll learn to use popular agent libraries like SmolAgents, LlamaIndex, and LangGraph, and build your own agents in pre-configured Hugging Face Spaces. You’ll share your creations on the Hugging Face Hub, explore community-built agents, and participate in challenges where your agents compete with others. The course includes foundational lessons, applied use case assignments, and a competitive challenge with a leaderboard. By completing assignments, you’ll earn a certificate and gain the skills to build and evaluate AI agents using cutting-edge tools.
