What's Ruby?
According to the official Ruby language site, Ruby is “a dynamic, open source programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity. It has an elegant syntax that is natural to read and easy to write”.
So, who are we?
We are a group of people in the North West of England, with an interest in all things Ruby or Rails ranging from beginners to experts - there's no requirement to be a Ruby guru to get involved, all you need is an interest in it.

18th June – Code Surgery and an introduction to Zsh
This month is the second NWRUG Code Surgery. Submit some code (see the discussion on the mailing list for how to do this) and we will have an evening of code reviews and our own little version of The Rails Way, NWRUG style. Ashley Moran will also be giving a short introduction to Zsh.
This month we are sponsored by NQ Consulting, so there will be Free pizza!
