This document outlines an agenda for a talk on practical Rails development. The agenda will focus on RESTful Rails and additional bonuses, and will not cover testing, databases, security, caching and scaling, or internationalization. It provides an overview of Rails, describing it as an open-source web framework using the Model-View-Controller pattern to develop database-backed web applications in a pure-Ruby environment.
