I'm trying to help my uncle create a website for his small business. Although I have a background in electronics, I don't have much experience in web development. Recently, my aunt passed away, and I really want to support my uncle during this tough time by getting this website up and running as quickly as possible. It's meant to be a product directory showcasing various hardware items he sells, along with their prices. I need to do this in a way that minimizes any financial costs for him. Any suggestions on how I can quickly set this up?

If you’re interested in getting your hands a bit dirty with some web dev, this might be a great chance to learn! But, honestly, if you're pressed for time, a WYSIWYG editor like Wix or Squarespace is the way to go. They even have e-commerce options if you want to sell products directly from the site later on.
Check out platforms like Squarespace or Wix. They offer super user-friendly tools that let you build websites without needing coding skills. For something quick and basic, they’re perfect because you can have a site up in no time.
Totally agree! Those platforms are great for someone who needs a site fast and doesn't want to deal with the complexities of coding.
You could also use tools like ChatGPT to help generate some basic HTML pages quickly. Then, purchase a domain from Cloudflare and host it for free on their Pages service. It might take a bit of learning but it could be worth checking out.
I'm happy to help! If you give me some details about what you need on that landing page, I can throw together a basic HTML file for you. You can host it on a site like Vercel for free afterwards. Just let me know how many products you need to display!

Yes, and if you go the e-commerce route, make sure to check their pricing. It can add up if you need extra features!
