StartupWichita.com, or a Ruby on Rails application for communities, their news, events, and resources; built for what Wichita, Kansas needed in their tech and startup scene.

Well, hello there. My name is Kenton Hansen. You might remember me from such works as "Startup Weekend Wichita" or "The Labor Party." Today, however, I'm here to talk about this web application started at a Hackathon in March 2014 with devICT.

The projects beta was completed and launched about three months later at startupwichita.com, and we as a community have been contributing to its development since then.
