Codex Community Workshop #1: What Is Codex?

​What is Codex? And what can you actually build with it?

​Workshop #1 in a new hands-on Codex series for students and early-career builders. We’ll start with a short live introduction to Codex, then use it to build and publish a personal portfolio site—and set up a useful recurring Automation.

​No previous Codex experience or polished project idea needed. Bring a laptop and leave with a live site plus an Automation you can keep using.

​WHAT YOU’LL DO

​• See Codex in action through a short live walkthrough
• Build your own portfolio site step by step
• Save a version and publish it with ChatGPT Sites
• Create a weekly Codex Automation that helps turn what you shipped into a portfolio update
