Do you have any experience with programming in Ruby or Rails? I’m just trying to gauge what you already know, so I can start somewhere relevant. One thing I would suggest that you do is check out Spree. ( [http://spreecommerce.com](http://spreecommerce.com)). It’s an open-source Ruby on Rails store system, and just might do what you’re looking for out of the box.

No, you do _not_ want to use SQLite as your production DB. It’s OK for development, but it’s not really meant to deal with concurrent requests.

Better yet, ask your professor if you can use PostgreSQL instead. ## Best, Marnen Laibow-Koser [http://www.marnen.org](http://www.marnen.org) removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid ---
