Scott, That article is very old so take it with a grain of salt now. I wrote it so... All being said, Spree appears to have addressed many of the issues. I still have issues with their solution but I also think it works depending on what you want to do.
I would not expect to customize spree and expect to upgrade spree though. I've been on a couple spree projects and most eventually start tearing out spree's core if they become really big. Everything being said Spree is MUCH better than starting a project from scratch. The number of mistakes that can be made are numerous. At the end of the day you should give spree and ror_ecommerce a test drive before committing to either solution. I assume your project is already being built. I'd love to hear how things are progressing. Dave On Sunday, August 12, 2012 10:03:21 PM UTC-7, Scott Olmsted wrote: > > Anyone used Spree or ror_ecommerce for an e-commerce site?
