OpenAI Build Week Community Event - Bentonville

​Join us in Bentonville for a hands-on OpenAI Codex workshop during Global Build Week.

​This beginner-to-intermediate friendly session is designed for builders, developers, technical founders, students, and curious makers who want practical experience using Codex to move from idea to working software faster. We’ll walk through how to use Codex as an AI coding partner, then spend most of the evening building together.

​Attendees can bring their own project idea or choose from guided starter prompts. You’ll get support throughout the session from OpenAI Codex Ambassadors, with help on setup, prompting, debugging, and shaping your project into something usable by the end of the night.

​No advanced AI experience is required. Basic comfort with code is helpful, but the focus will be on learning by doing.

​Codex credits and additional event support will be available, with final details to be announced.

​What attendees will do:

• ​Learn how Codex fits into a modern development workflow

• ​Set up and start using Codex hands-on

• ​Turn an idea into a small working prototype

• ​Practice prompting, debugging, and iterating with Codex

• ​Get live help from Codex Ambassadors

• ​Meet other local builders during Global Build Week
