## What it is
An example Rails 4.2 application demonstrating a membership/subscription SaaS site using Stripe and the Payola gem, with Devise for authentication and Bootstrap for styling. It serves as a starting-point template rather than a production library.

## Use cases
- build a rails subscription membership site with stripe
- example of integrating payola with stripe in rails
- starting point for a saas app with recurring billing
- learn how to add stripe payments to a rails app
- rails app with devise authentication and stripe subscriptions

## When to choose
- you want a reference example of Stripe subscription billing in Rails 4.2
- you are learning RailsApps-style Rails app structure with Devise and Payola

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained production-ready billing solution (last release 2017, Rails 4.2 is EOL)
- you use modern Rails versions or newer Stripe APIs
- you need a library rather than a full example application
