Welcome to Our User Group!

The Little Rock .Net Users Group (LRDNUG) has been meeting on a monthly basis for over 7 years. Each year it keeps getting better. We have had several technology expos with great speakers from across the country as well as many local and regional presenters. We invite anyone who is in the area and interested in using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET to come to our meetings and see for themselves the benefits of interacting with other central Arkansas software developers.

Next Meeting:

Topic
: Exploring iOS Development - Chris Varn

Mobile development is a necessity to stay relevant in today’s day and age. iOS, along with Android, is the leading platform for mobile development. Join us as we discuss the mobile landscape and where iOS fits. We will explore the differences between Objective-C and C# and what it takes to get started in iOS development. We will then go through the process of writing an app.
