Helping women find their potential in code. You are not alone.

About

Systers is a community for all women involved in the technical aspects of computing. We have over 7,000 members from more than 65 countries around the world. We welcome the participation of women technologists of all ages at any stage of their studies or careers.

Projects

Peace Corps

  • PC Hub, a site to discuss improvements/features to all Peace Corps projects. PC officials can log in and direct open source contributors on what to improve on an individual project. It can also be used to discuss new applications needed for Peace Corps Volunteers (to assist their service work).
  • PC Prep Kit, a site to teach about Malaria. Gamified Education. After using this to "onboard" PC Volunteers about Malaria, then they will use the Mobile App to keep track of medicine/trips during their service.
  • Photo Language Translation (PLT), an application to assist Peace Corps Volunteers by translation Chuukese into English with picture association. It helps teach Chuukese people the English language as well as preserve Chuukese in a written form.

Systers

  • Mailman3, an email list to help groups share ideas, support, and collaborate on projects. Systers is upgrading to Mailman3 and we need customized features. We have 28 email lists.
  • PowerUp, founded by a Syster, is a choose-your-own-adventure game that is designed to be inclusive and teaches young girls (ages 11-14) awareness about real-life scenarios.
  • Portal, a site that brings Systers and Local Communities together, offering both in-person and online events for our global women technologists.
  • Volunteer Management System (VMS), helps keep a record of Systers volunteers so that we can utilize volunteer grants where companies match the number of hours an employee volunteers.

Systers Open Source

  • Infrastructure, technology advances daily and we're slow to keep up. We need updates on apps.
  • GitHub Pages, we have 3 pages that need updates. Our Main and Celebration are informational pages. Slack pages need an onboarding component.
