It is estimated that there are 24 million eCommerce websites on the internet. Do you want to learn how to make one more?
We just published a course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will teach you how to create an e-commerce website using Django and Vue.
This course was developed by CodeWithStein. He has created many great tutorials on his YouTube channel and we wanted to bring him to a wider audience.
