I am looking to reuse elements of a rails app in other rails apps but am concerned about how to keep them up to date as I add new functionalities. Essentially, I have a template of functionalities and features that I want to apply to different market segments. Over time I will be adding in common functionalities that I want all to use. In doing so, I want to minimize errors/manual editing when I push out upgrades to different apps 1. I am aware of engines and lightrail? Are either of these the right way to go? 2. I was thinking of building one master rails app and then creating a script that generates each specific app, inserting the appropriate app specific content (db names, slogans, images, etc). Does this sound like a reasonable approach? Is there any other plugin/gem/technique available that I should be looking at?
