Hi, It seems like quite a while ago that I used engines or even Rails as I've been on a long JavaScript detour. Now I have time to get back to my long term project of building online stores and would like to catch up to the state-of-the-art in code reusability in the Rails world and productization.
Engines are really the only way I know that I could build a generic store application and then have a layer on top that will customize this application for a particular retailer. Then the generic application layer can easily be updated. Are there any other code reuse options out there worth looking at? DHH doesn't care for the idea of high level components but what do you think he would do if he had to write and maintain 20 online stores for small business owners? I would really like to read his answer to that question.
