What things should i consider before building a gaming site?

Hi everyone, am self taught and still in high school and for the last 2 years, i have been teaching myself how to code and now i feel am ready to put what i have learnt to use. The reason why i wanted to code in the first place, was to build games, i built some few games and shared them with my friends during the lockdown, they were just small 2d games i built with phaser 3.I felt like i needed to do more than just games so i want to build a gaming site where one can play and download games from. I know how to write code in;

  • Javascript
  • html
  • css
  • Python (my first to learn)
  • C

what else do i need to know before starting?

Git (Version control system)
Containerisation (Docker)
Lint & Typescript (Eslint, Black for python for example)
Test your code, yes, TEST YOUR CODE.
CI/CD
Hosting/Kubernetes

Edit: You want to use a database, so you probably want to learn SQL :)

Honestly that's what i have been doing for things i don't know about. I guess i will just continue learning and build at the same time. Thanks
