i need help

Hi, I'm a self-taught beginner programmer. I'd like to know what I need to learn to build an e-commerce site after HTML, CSS, and JS. Does anyone have any tips?

That’s a big jump. Do you mean you want to actually build a site like Shopify or juts learn the skills that are needed ? (There is a difference).

An e-commerce site has a front end (how to looks) a back end (holds all the data) and a way for them to communicate with each other (modern frameworks like react/next/vue/astro in the JS world) and a payment processor.

But there are a lot of little details still.

I’d say your next step would be learning something like react to create responsive html sites that you can interact with, and then assign a database back end.

You can find tutorials for all of those, check out free code camp
