Hi everyone! I just like to ask, to create a website with customer accounts, and with the website be able to sell goods and is controlled by the customer themselves, other than php, html, css, which we need to learn, what else do we need to learn to achieve this? Is there a course for php which teaches how to make this kind of website?
I understand E-commerce and how to construct a website. Have to say treehouse produced some great content already!

You have to understand the entire system of the business to make shopping cart from the ground up. It's best to just choose a cms from open source project and modify one. wordpress has a cart. drupal has a cart. there is magento.
It takes a team to make shopping cart from scratch. I would just get wordpress plug and the drupal cart and play with those.
