Prompt-Engineering-Guide

Prompt Engineering Guide is a resource from DAIR.AI that contains papers, learning guides, lectures, references, and tools related to prompt engineering for large language models. It describes prompt engineering as a relatively new discipline for developing and optimizing prompts to efficiently use language models for a wide variety of applications and research topics. The guide is also available as a web version at promptingguide.ai.

The guide covers prompt engineering techniques and applications, with sections such as zero-shot prompting, few-shot prompting, chain-of-thought prompting, self-consistency, retrieval augmented generation, ReAct prompting, and function calling. It also includes model pages and material on risks and misuses. The repository provides guides, papers, lessons, notebooks, and resources for prompt engineering, context engineering, RAG, and AI Agents.

The project offers self-paced prompt engineering courses under the DAIR.AI Academy and supports 13 languages. It includes a 1-hour lecture that provides a comprehensive overview of prompting techniques, applications, and tools. The guide can be run locally with Node and pnpm, and it is released under the MIT License.
