This is the recording of a talk I have recently to my work colleagues.

In this talk, I cover the design constraints described in Roy Fielding’s REST architecture.

I challenge some of the misconceptions that are commonly held in the Rails community about REST, and provide some RESTful tips for organising code in a way that will make your project more resistant to change.
