Conclusion
I think that these skills don't exactly impact or benefit me in the career path that I am following. However we live in a digital world where everyone utilizes the internet in one way or another and because of that the skills and knowledge i have gained will be extremely vital to myself should i want to start my own business many people pay big money for services like Shopify and Squarespace but with some learning and a couple weeks of work I was able to create a site that could be used as a store to sell items to customers that has almost no cost apart from the domain.
