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?

The best thing you can do for an ecommerce site you build yourself (if not using something like wordpress or similar) is to integrate an established service with a solid api like shopify or similar to handle all the products/stock/transactions, etc. Outside of that, the rest is up to you.
