How do you set up an e-business?

Do I need to learn Javascript if my website will be a fixed-header, resizable one?

Which Treehouse track is best in providing guidance in setting up an e-business?

To complete the Treehouse website design track, I must complete the SASS track. Instead, can I switch to WOO-Commerce or another business-related one and still complete this website design track?

Thanks!

Hi, not 100% sure what are your trying to say but what are you trying to achieve?

In order to get the track completion badge you need to complete all the courses in that track. You can take courses independent of tracks, like the WooCommerce course. But, if you're going to be doing web design/development, learning SASS, JavaScript, JQuery, Ajax, and PHP are important too.

There is a start a business track, and there are several courses in the library for business as well.

What is your end goal for starting a business? That would help with answers too.

My 2 cents is to take the Wordpress courses. You can set-up and manage a business with a slew of plugins. WooCommerce is a really good open sourced plug-in that is popular and supported by many developers. (Wordpress is also Open Source software) When you want your site to do something, changes are there is a plug-in that will do it. Once you finish the Wordpress Track, I suggest the WebDesign track.
