Can you elaborate what you mean by the phrase “something special“ because I am currently building an e-commerce peer to peer marketplace on Wordpress.However the plug-ins that I am using do not have the specific function that I need for my business. I am now required to customise the plug-in so I am now learning HTML,CSS,JavaScript and PHP for customizing and combining features from other plugins.What is your reason for learning web development? Are you planning on your income coming from designing & developing websites?
I have a number of websites I run, but I'm not a web developer. Everything I know about CSS I learned when I needed it, nothing more. The website isn't the business, it's just the medium for marketing.
If you're making something special, web dev makes sense. If not, most blogs or e-commerce stores can be improved out of the box with a 5-pixel rounded border & drop shadow on images.
Would you say this is a case of “something special“ as using WordPress is sufficient so far, however it does not fulfill my main business idea at this moment of time. What would you suggest me to do if you have any suggestion?
