WebCoder: Scaling General Frontend Development with Artifact-Grounded Agentic Reinforcement Learning
We introduce WebCoder, a general frontend development agent trained with artifact-grounded agentic reinforcement learning.
ProofPaper ↗
Key points
- Real-world frontend development requires agents to compose reproduction, generation, modification, and repair over an evolving application state.
- Learning a general policy for this process requires translating heterogeneous execution feedback into task-aligned rewards and effective credit assignment across long sequences of interdependent actions.
- We build Webdev-World, an executable environment that integrates code editing, application execution, browser inspection, and on-demand skills while preserving project state across interactions.
- We further introduce Webdev-Bench to evaluate composed development requirements within a single project.
