Flexstore on Rails Tutorial
04/18/2006 By Christophe Coenraets


Christophe Coenraets has published step by step tutorial which shows how to develop Flexstore, an Ajax, Flash and Rails powered shopping cart application.

In this tutorial, we create two modules:

1. The administration module is an internal application used to maintain the product database. You use the administration module to create, update, and delete products.

2. The store module is a customer-facing application. Customers use the store module to browse and filter the product catalog.

In the administration module, we use Rails' simple scaffolding feature to automatically provide the default infrastructure to list, view, create, edit, and delete products. In the store module, we experiment with additional features:

  • Templates


  • Filtering using Ajax


  • Partial Page Templates


  • Builder Templates


  • Putting a Flex front-end on top of a Ruby on Rails application




  • This tutorial uses a MySQL database. It is assumed that you already have MySQL up and running.
