Who we are

The Kansas City Ruby User Group (KCRug) was founded in November of 2003, by Jason Clinton and Shashank Date. Jason and Shashank formed the group with the desire to have a common place where Ruby programmers could come together and talk about Ruby.

KCRug is a member of a community of User Groups around the country. Anyone is welcome to attend. There are no dues or fees, and you don't have to know anything about Ruby or Rails. There is a chance you might learn something from others in the group.

Ruby is a computer programming language. It is very often used together with Rails, which is a framework for quickly producing robust web applications based upon databases.
