+# Get started with Langfuse
-Langfuse is an **open-source LLM engineering platform** ([GitHub](https://github.com/langfuse/langfuse)) that helps teams collaboratively debug, analyze, and iterate on their LLM applications. All platform features are natively integrated to accelerate the development workflow. Langfuse is open, self-hostable, and extensible ([_why langfuse?_](/why)).

+## Langfuse Overview
+
+Langfuse combines three core workflows:
+
+- **Observability:** Trace your application to understand behavior in production.
+- **Prompt Management:** Version and ship prompts as production assets.
+- **Evaluation:** Measure quality with scores, datasets, and experiments.
+
+Most teams start with tracing or prompt management, then add evaluation as they expand their setup.

## Where to start?
-Setting up the full process of online tracing, prompt management, production evaluations to identify issues, and offline evaluations on datasets requires some time. This guide is meant to help you figure out what is most important for your use case.
+Start with the workflow that matches your immediate goal, then expand over time:
+
+- Add tracing if you need visibility into application behavior.
+- Add prompt management if prompts need versioning and release controls.
+- Add evaluations when you want to measure quality systematically.
