ceiling joists are only necessay if you want a loft for additional storage. for a 10 ft wide, use 2x8 to give support for storage of heavier objects.
a ridge makes installation of rafters easier when using stick construction. use the nail plates to pre-assemble the rafters when no ridge is used. either is ok for a shed. 3/8 inch sheeting is ok on a small shed, covered with construction felt and shingles.
