Wix is better if you want a quick, all-in-one website with hosting, templates, and simple drag-and-drop editing. It suits small catalogs and service businesses that don’t need complex store features. WooCommerce is better if you want full control, stronger SEO with WordPress, advanced product options, flexible checkout, and endless extensions. It scales well, but you must manage hosting, updates, and security, or hire support. Costs: Wix is predictable monthly; WooCommerce can start cheap but grows with plugins and hosting. Choose Wix for simplicity and speed. Choose WooCommerce for flexibility, ownership, and long-term growth. Both can sell online; your needs decide.

To develop a WordPress plugin, you need a WordPress installation to test, a code editor, and a local or staging server running PHP and MySQL/MariaDB. Learn basic PHP, plus how WordPress loads plugins, uses hooks (actions and filters), and handles options and database access with $wpdb. Understand HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for admin screens or front-end features. Use secure practices like nonces, capability checks, sanitization, and escaping. Follow WordPress coding standards and proper file structure with a plugin header. Version control (Git) and debugging tools (WP_DEBUG) help you build, test, and maintain updates. Documentation and an upgrade path reduce issues.
