Vibe Coding in London: Java, AI Agents & MCP Hands-On
The **Women Coding Community (WCC)** is celebrating International Women's Week with a high-energy, hands-on Vibe Coding in London. This isn't just a presentation. It's a community coding event where we build the future of our platform together.
This is vibe-coding hours in London where we build real things together using AI tools and the Model Context Protocol (MCP). No passive watching. Just coding, experimenting, and learning from each other.
**What we'll get into:** MCP in action, connecting AI agents to real tools and data sources.
\- Exploring Claude\, JetBrains AI and GitHub Copilot/Codex in a Java workflow\,
\- Prompt skills that actually work\, how to get AI to write better code\,
\- Pair programming with AI as your co\-pilot\.
**Vibe coding**: implement things together, in real time, in person
**Who this is for:** Developers curious how MCP actually works in practice. Java learners who want to use AI tools to level up faster. Anyone who learns better by doing than watching.
Never attended our events before? No problem, this event stands completely on its own. Just bring your laptop and curiosity.
**Choose your approach:**
**The Architect:** Come with a specific Java project idea and your initial implementation. Use this time to pair program with mentors to solve bugs or add features.
**The Catalyst:** Just bring an idea! Connect with other attendees, form a team on the spot, and spend the evening coding a prototype together.
**Project Inspiration**
All ideas are centred around enhancing the WCC ecosystem. Pick a level that challenges you:
**Basic: Core Java**
* You can also pick a good first issue from [our open-source project](https://github.com/Women-Coding-Community/wcc-backend/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Ajava%2Fspringboot%20label%3A%22good%20first%20issue%22)
* WCC Member Directory: Build a command-line tool to manage member profiles using Java Collections and File I/O
* Event Attendance Tracker: Create a system to track check-ins for our meetups using the Java Date/Time API
* Coding Challenge Generator: Develop a tool that randomly selects Java exercises for members to practise
**Intermediate: Spring Boot & APIs**
* You can also pick an open issue related to spring-boot [our open-source project](https://github.com/Women-Coding-Community/wcc-backend/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20state%3Aopen%20label%3Ajava%2Fspringboot)
* WCC Job Board: Create a REST API for members to post and filter tech opportunities
* Community Blog Platform: Build a backend that supports Markdown posts and author profiles
* Skill-Tracking Dashboard: Develop a platform for members to track their learning journey and visualise progress
Mentors will be on hand throughout the evening to guide you, answer questions, and help you get unstuck.
**Schedule: Thursday 13 March, 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM (London Time)**
**6:00 PM** \- AI Tools Showcase: Claude vs ChatGPT vs JetBrains AI
**6:30 PM** \- Vibe Coding: Pair programming and feature building with mentors

**Hear From Our Learners:**
"The Language games session provides a well-structured and immersive way of learning. Even as a beginner I am able to practice all aspects of the language and have learnt a lot whilst having fun!" - Jeremy Smithers
"The Sunday games session is in a classroom environment but relaxed with organized team-based games designed to facilitate conversation. Itโs a good way to consolidate what you know and pick up some new vocab. The folks who attend vary massively in ability so itโs not competitive, but more a chance to learn from people who are more advanced and help along newbies. I recommend it!" - Mark Mansell
**FAQ ๅธธ่ง้ฎ้ข::**
**What if I donโt feel my Chinese is good enough to join?**
Donโt worry, our hosts will be on hand to offer support and help you participate. Many are also group exercises, so you can lean on stronger members too.

You'll be diving into a variety of engaging and interactive language activities specifically designed to match your proficiency level! Think fun, familiar formats like Articulate, and creative role-play scenarios.

In addition, every game is expertly facilitated by our experienced tutors. They provide real-time support and guidance, ensure activities are well-structured for optimal learning, and offer clear explanations and consolidation of any new vocabulary or concepts that emerge. It's learning through play, with expert support!
**Iโm not into games, is it still for me?**
Yes!! Think of it as immersive practice, not gaming. Even if youโre not a gamer, you will enjoy learning Mandarin this way! Our activities are designed to boost your vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency in a natural and engaging way.
**Are there any discounts for Chinese lessons for members?**
