I feel like CS is more focused on the things surrounding code like project management, design patterns, documentation & programming concepts where as boot camps (& self thought) are more focused on just coding and not the surrounding concepts around programming which are required for large scale applications. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have done neither a CS degree nor a bootcamp, but based on what I've seen, it seems that CS programs try to teach many of the broader concepts of programming that, while taught with a specific language (sometimes a bit outdated), apply across most application development regardless of language.
Bootcamps seem much more task-oriented. You are building a project using specific languages/technologies to learn how to use those technologies. It seems less about the overarching programming concepts since the end goal is to become a developer in those specific languages, though many students may grasp that on their own.
