## Definition

_bootcamp_ — in this channel's material, the live event during which **Compound Engineering** emerged and was demonstrated: a session where the plugin's creator walked through how it works, why he developed it, its philosophy, and how to use it step by step.[^45fde771-1fa4-5519-a1bd-1c6cdabd8394@79]

In this channel's material, **_bootcamp_** names the live event where **Compound Engineering** was introduced and demonstrated. In Kiran's own words — the creator of the Compound Engineering plugin — the method is *'a way of building software that emerged during the bootcamp'*[^45fde771-1fa4-5519-a1bd-1c6cdabd8394@79], so the bootcamp is the setting in which the methodology itself took shape and was first explained.On Friday, the team ran a **live bootcamp with Compound Engineering**, where Kiran showed everyone how the plugin he created works, why he developed it, the philosophy behind it, and step-by-step instructions on how to use it yourself. So many good questions flew by during the camp — with no time to answer them live — that the team collected them in a follow-up session to go into a little more detail.Jump to the definition of Compound Engineering> So, Compound engineering is a way of building software that emerged during the bootcamp- A **bootcamp** here is a live team session, not a generic training course — specifically the event where Compound Engineering was demoed, explained, and Q&A'd.- Kiran, General Manager of Kora at Every and creator of the plugin, led the walkthrough.- Because the camp produced more questions than time allowed, unanswered ones were gathered into a dedicated follow-up session.
