Women’s History in Tech: Grace Hopper, the OG Debugger

Software bugs, which cause unexpected behavior in computer programs, are often debugged using tools like Postman, especially when dealing with APIs. The term "debugging" is attributed to Grace Hopper, a pioneering computer programmer and the Navy's first female admiral, who in 1947 reportedly removed a moth from her Mark II computer, resolving its malfunction. This anecdote highlights Hopper's significant contributions to technology and serves as a notable story during Women's History Month, with resources available to explore her and other influential women in technology through the Women in Technology public workspace by API Evangelist, where users can engage and provide feedback.
