The best little GUI toolkit, for Ruby.
This wiki contains information that's important to anyone who wants to hack away on the code of Shoes itself. If you'd like to use Shoes to build applications, you don't need any info from here! Just go to the Shoes website and download Shoes. You can also find the Shoes manual and a book, Nobody Knows Shoes. This'll get you started building applications with Shoes.
Awesome! We'd love to have you help out with Shoes. Here's some resources you're gonna need:
- Building Shoes
- The Shoes issue tracker, where bug reports go.
- You can join the Shoes mailing list by sending an email to shoes@librelist.com
- The Future of Shoes
- Shoes Roadmap
- A Developer's Tour Through Shoes
- A Developer's Tour Through The Magic Packager
If you're interested in Shoes, but don't know where to start, here's some handy advice:
- Check out the Shoes issue tracker, and see if there are any bugs that interest you.
- If there are, take a shot at trying to fix one!
- If you get stuck doing that, post to the mailing list, and we'll work on it together!
- If there aren't any known bugs that tickle your fancy, see if you can find some of your own! If you find any, report them on the tracker, and then give the fix a shot.
We could also really use some help on two fronts:

- Someone who's smooth with Windows 7/Vista. Same sort of deal: we have some access, but most of our Windows expertise is on XP...
