a powerful Linux command allowing users super user access to install, update, and access files on a server.
Much like the command, the community of Sudo has a mission to create sudoers out of the women of Kingston, allowing them to install new technical skills, update any existing skills, and access a community built to empower.
Through hosting monthly meet-ups and workshops, Sudo strives to build an energetic and welcoming community of programmers to support women in improving their technical skills. We believe programming is a skill everyone should have, and it's our mission to offer and encourage the women of Kingston to learning these skills.
