+==========
+Background
+==========
+
+This tutorial presents a :mod:`pyramid` application that uses
+technologies which will be familiar to someone with :term:`Pylons`
+experience. It uses :term:`SQLAlchemy` as a persistence mechanism and
+:term:`url dispatch` to map URLs to code. It can also be followed by
+people without any prior Python web framework experience.
+
+To code along with this tutorial, the developer will need a UNIX
+machine with development tools (Mac OS X with XCode, any Linux or BSD
+variant, etc) *or* he will need a Windows system of any kind.
+
+This tutorial is targeted at :mod:`pyramid` version 1.0.
+
+Have fun!
