This hands-on course introduces modern AI-assisted software development using OpenAI Codex. Participants will learn how to move beyond simple prompt-based coding into structured, agentic workflows that use context engineering, spec-driven development, and multi-session orchestration.
By the end of the day, learners will be able to design and build real software systems using Codex as an active development partner—capable of writing, refactoring, planning, debugging, and extending code across local and cloud environments.
The course emphasizes practical engineering patterns such as context management, work tree-based parallel development, MCP integrations, and task decomposition for scalable AI-driven software delivery.
