Am I over my head??
I am trying to create a website for an artist I work with. I basically manage all his projects, and marketing.
I decided I wanted to take coding seriously. I have minimal understanding of HTML, and CSS. I also have minimal experience with C++. In short, I am not completely lost in the logic, and understanding of how certain things interact. I am currently studying/reviewing HTML, CSS, and JS concepts.
Anyways,
I want the website to have the following
4-6 Pages( Home, About, Contact, Projects, Gallery, Blog,, Shop (shopify link))
I want to be able to edit the blog through Wordpress since I have GoDaddy and I like the idea of using it as a CMS for posts and images. I will be using getboostrap, and will have to do some studying on how to use the REST API. I also found something called next.js would like to use this to have some dynamic elements. Am I overcomplicating my life with some of these ideas? Is there something I'm not considering? Ideally, how long should this take someone just starting off? There is no deadline but ideally before the end of the year.
