Floyd's E-Commerce: from Squarespace to Solidus
In 2014, Floyd was lesser known as The Floyd Leg. Our website was on Squarespace for both its e-commerce solution and web hosting. A large part of our current success was realized by choosing to invest in a custom web application that’s built with Solidus. With our website no longer abstracted by a WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get") editor, we partnered with Nebulab to handle full-stack web development. Solidus (Spree, at the time, before it was acquired, forked, and renamed) was recommended to power the e-commerce part of our application. The decision to go custom came after a successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2015 for the Floyd Legs—a set of four steel table legs that fastened onto any flat surface to quickly put a table together. We proved a market need for adaptable and sustainable furniture design. The co-founders, Kyle Hoff and Alex O’Dell, knew there were more product offerings on the roadmap as they championed Floyd to be the furniture solution for all apartment essentials. Fast forward to 2019, Floyd is seeking to be the furniture solution for the entire home worldwide.

ROR ecommerce tutorial?
I'd say Solidus and Spree are you best options rather than trying to roll out you own ecommerce solution.

⚙️ Building a better Ruby ORM for time series and analytics
The following code snippet highlights the real-life use case that inspired me to build a continuous aggregates macro for better time-series data aggregations. It’s part of a RubyGems contribution I made, and it’s still a work in progress. However, it’s worth validating how this idea can reduce the Ruby code you’ll have to maintain.

RubyGems now requires MFA for owners of top gems
If anyone is looking to do some open source contributions on a mature, production Ruby on Rails site, I highly recommend contributing to the rubygems.org project. The code is extremely clean and the repo is very, very well run.

Making popular Ruby packages more secure
RubyGems does have gem signing, but it's not widely used.
There's a proposal for a new "one button" approach using sigstore[0].
Other ecosystems are also looking at sigstore too, and a lot of us are cooperating in the OpenSSF Securing Software Repos WG [1]. Package signing is a regular topic of discussion and there are various efforts underway.
Disclosure: I am involved with both of these.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing Solidus and RubyGems you can also consider the following projects:
Spree Commerce - A headless open source e-commerce platform for global brands
Gem in a Box - Really simple rubygem hosting
Active Merchant - Active Merchant is a simple payment abstraction library extracted from Shopify. The aim of the project is to feel natural to Ruby users and to abstract as many parts as possible away from the user to offer a consistent interface across all supported gateways.
