The document discusses must-have open source applications for small businesses. It recommends Trac for project management, Drupal for content management, and a Ruby on Rails ecommerce application. Trac is easy to install and use for tracking tasks and client feedback. Drupal allows adding content and custom modules for features like booking rooms and maps. The Ruby on Rails shopping cart recommends is clean, customizable, and extensible for payments.
