Ask HN: Can you recommend a Rails ecommerce framework?

1 points by shloime 13 years ago · 2 comments · 1 min read


I don't have much Rails experience, but I'd like to build a customized ecommerce store. I thought Rails would be the way to go. I've looked into Spree Commerce. Does anyone have any experience with it or any other thoughts?

Spree Commerce is perhaps the best ecommerce option on Rails. There are a few others like ror-e, piggyback which are not that mature or in continuous development. You could use Spree as a rails engine on top your site or combine with cms like refinery or radiant.

You could just choose to use only shopping cart feature of spree commerce with your existing site.

    Thanks for the info! I'm essentially trying to convert http://outgrow.me/ (which is running on Wordpress with WePay buttons for payments) to a Rails site. I'm hoping I'm not biting off more than I can chew..
