Summary
This chapter focused on an important aspect of how we plan a multi-agent system. Whatever form our system takes, it must eventually go into production and be used by users. The experience for users is pivotal to whatever project we have in mind. That is why we started by using Streamlit, a framework that allows us to experiment quickly and get an initial proof of concept. Being able to get a prototype of our system allows us to understand both strengths and weaknesses before investing large resources in scaling. The advantage of Streamlit is that it allows us to analyze both the backend and the frontend, enabling us to interact with an application as if we were one of the users. Streamlit allows us to test what a complete product may look like before we conduct scaling and system optimization.
Obviously, an application will then have to pass this prototype stage to enter production. This step requires that we conduct scaling of our application. LLMs are complex products...
