The Mudan Codes Community was thrilled to deliver a game-changing opportunity: a hands-on awareness session introducing GitHub Copilot, now available completely free for our learners!

GitHub Copilot, an AI-powered coding assistant developed by GitHub and OpenAI, is revolutionizing the way developers write code. And now, our girls have free access to this tool — no trials, no credit cards, and no limitations.

🧠 Why This Matters:
AI is transforming the software development landscape, and it’s crucial that underrepresented communities like Somali girls are at the forefront of this revolution. By introducing GitHub Copilot, we aim to:

  • Enhance productivity for beginner and intermediate coders

  • Help students understand AI-assisted coding

  • Break the fear barrier with AI in programming

👩🏽‍💻 Training Highlights:

  • How GitHub Copilot works

  • How to integrate it into Visual Studio Code

  • Real-life examples of writing code with Copilot’s help

  • Ethical considerations of AI in programming

This workshop equipped our learners with a new kind of coding confidence, showing that technology can truly be an equalizer when access is fair and inclusive.

Mudan Codes remains committed to ensuring Somali girls are not just tech users, but leaders and creators. GitHub Copilot is one more tool in their growing arsenal.
