What is crewAI?
CrewAI: An open-source Python framework for organising role-based teams of agents, where each agent has a role, goal and tools and tasks are assigned to the crew. It is aimed at quick setup of collaborative agent workflows.
CrewAI: an example
A crew has a 'Researcher' agent and a 'Writer' agent, given tasks to gather facts and then draft a blog post.
