  🛒 Solidus, the open-source eCommerce framework for industry trailblazers.

  

The open source e-commerce system Solidus[2] is a good project to look at for understanding some of the challenges of scaling and modularity. One immediate observation: Solidus does not use the standard Rails project organization. Rather, it's split into 5 different Ruby libraries ("gems"): core, api, backend, frontend, sample. This segmentation alone is enough to drive a significant amount of modularity.
