Hi there

I am looking to code a web app so that it becomes automated (currently I have to do everything manually). I have entry-level knowledge of the MEN stack so I would prefer to code on this. Here is what the niche website-building app has to achieve:

  1. User fills a form with a chosen domain name: What is the best way to check if the domain name is available in real-time and warn the user if not? Connecting to the GoDaddy API via front end?
  2. Take all the entries from the form, and replace placeholders in .ejs templates. The questions is, how do I make new copies automatically created and uploaded in a new domain? Can I configure AWS in a way that automatically spins up a new server with templates upon form submission?
  3. Store each website's configuration and user details in a database. Do I create a separate DB for each website or do I have a central one that is accessible by each website via API?
  4. Create a really basic CMS that allows the user to edit the text that has been put in place already by the form. This is the hardest part for me. How can I achieve something like this? Do I need to study a framework like React?
I am looking more for directions of what to study in order to achieve the above, as they are above my pay grade. Best practices are appreciated.
