About This Event

The Oxford Agentic Coding Bootcamp takes place on 26 November 2026 at Worcester College in Oxford. Participants will spend a practical day building and shipping a live website and working product prototype using Claude Code and Codex.

A practical, hands-on day to build and ship a live website and working product prototype with Claude Code and Codex.

mBuild and ship two things you own outright: a live website and a working product prototype.

The Oxford Agentic Coding Bootcamp is a practical, hands-on day for people who understand the concepts but have not yet built and shipped something of their own. Claude Code and Codex do the typing; you learn the workflow around them, from the brief to version control, deployment and testing.

It does not assume you can code. By five o’clock, you will have shipped a personal website live on the internet and a working product prototype that saves real data and has basic tests.

What we’ll cover

- Context before code: writing the brief the agent reads first, and asking for a plan before it builds

- Your workbench: the editor, terminal and repositories

- Version control as your undo button: commits, branches and pull requests

- Shipping: deploying to the web, preview links and going live

- Giving it a memory: a real database, API keys and what never goes in the repository

- Trust but verify: tests, fact-checking what the AI wrote and a second model reviewing the code

- Testing on a real person: swapping prototypes and capturing feedback

How the day runs

Every session is show, then do, with facilitators moving between tables.

You’ll leave with

- A personal website live on the internet, in your own GitHub repository

- A working product prototype that saves real data and has basic tests

- A take-home kit of the prompts and commands used on the day, plus guidance on keeping costs under control
