I'm building an E-Commerce in Rails and using Shippo to manage shipments. I was originally building an admin dashboard section for shipments and relying on webhooks from Shippo to update order status, trigger e-mails to customers etc... Until I realized I could just let Shippo do the heavy lifting and give my client a link to the Shippo Dashboard to manage her shipments from there. Currently I retrieve rates, purchase labels through their API....
