Those were exactly my thoughts.. however I haven’t been able to find much material on how to implement this without relying on LangChain.. do you know of any beginners material I could use to fill my gaps?

I will do it - you are right. Lots of materials in the space is basically people selling their complex tools w/ learning as a lower priority
Start with ignoring 90% of the stuff you read about and realize you’re only manipulating strings to send to an API.
