What Ragas is

Ragas is a Python toolkit for evaluating and optimizing applications built on large language models. It scores application output with both LLM-based and traditional metrics. It generates test datasets for evaluation. It integrates with LLM frameworks such as LangChain and with observability tools. Custom metrics, such as a DiscreteMetric with allowed values and a prompt, score responses through an LLM client. The `ragas quickstart` command creates example projects from templates, including one for RAG evaluation. It collects anonymized usage data, which the RAGAS_DO_NOT_TRACK environment variable disables.
