Build a shop like this : https://www.polaboy.com/

Hey guys! I want to rebuild a shop like this http://www.newfoundlandcanvas.com/photo-printing but have few webapp developing skills but good basic computer science and programming skills. I think I just need a hint or some keywords to get started - who can help!? :)

Are you trying to just do styling and basic navigation like HTML,CSS,JavaScript, or are you wanting to do a full in depth functionality that uses the search bar to look for queries to find a specific item in your shop and have your cart store items and update them in a database using MySql and PHP?

Depending what programming and computer science experience you have, HTML/CSS and a touch of javascript will be incredibly easy for you to pick up. Perhaps in just a couple of weeks ( to get to a point where if you are not sure a quick google search will provide you with the answers, and you will have the knowledge to logically work things out).

That's just front-end, though. In terms of back-end, it depends what programming language you use. I would assume you have used MYSQL or similar while programming, and in all fairness server side languages will be very similar to programming languages such as C / Java etc..
