AWS, JavaScript, React - Deploy Web Apps on the Cloud - Creating a Non-Root Account

In this tutorial, we learn how to create a non-root user account named Bob and grant it superuser privileges by adding it to the sudo group. The process involves using the 'add user' command, setting a password, and verifying the user's creation in the system. We then confirm Bob's membership in the sudo group, allowing administrative command execution. The lesson concludes with a preview of securing the Bob account with SSH key authentication in the next session.
