Parcel2Go parcel comparison website project

Hi all. I am trying to create a website that does the function of Parcel2Go. I need to be able to sell postage labels and then for buyers to be able to purchase these (using a payment gateway). I will then use an API to create a postage label once the buyer has paid. I need some guidance on how to do this and how it will work. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I personally agree a little regards Wappler (and I AM a professional) as it does tend to lock one into the use of their plugins etc (some of which do not make any effort at all to follow industry standards), however if it would help the OP achieve something they obviously have no skillset to achieve, then I guess it's a valid suggestion. The sh*t that you two are throwing at each other however, is wasteful of the space and time of professionals who come here to resolve real issues regards Adobe software, not your psychological ones.

To the OP:

You are in the wrong place. This is a forum that supports the use of a development tool. You need a forum that explains the basic concepts of web programming. Try something on stackexchange or similar. However, you do not seem to understand some basic premises and until you do (as pointed out) you will have little chance of achieving what you want. Ben has at least tried to give you a picture of some of the elements you will require, but you need more skills if you intend to do this yourself. It isn't the world's hardest piece of software to create (but nor is it the easiest), but from your queries, it seems as if this is currently far out of reach of your skillset, or understanding. Start with basics - use a programming forum. Good luck.

I'd like to ask why ALL of my posts have been removed silvia? I don't think what I said is abusive, its just being frankly honest with someone and not giving them false hope.

 

Similarly l have no idea why some of the others which give a broader opinion and point of view about certain products which are being freely promoted in this forum should be removed.

As a mere amateur, I am able to incorporate RESTful API's in my projects with very little knowledge of coding. My dreams are turned into reality. Caveat is to use a program that is easily dismissed in this forum.

So now you are removing the posts of those whose opinions  you don't personally agree with to silence what you don't want to hear because its too near the truth.........how very corrupt but lm in no way surprised at that.

This is what the OP wants to do

This can be done using Dreamweaver; but requires a lot of programming and interaction with Postman (excuse the pun).

 

A better solution is to use a program that will facilitate using API's

I'm not sure I fully understand your request.  Is this something you are doing to start a business, for a school project?  This is a huge ask and doesn't seem well defined. In short, can Dreamweaver help you? Yes. In the same way that a hammer can help you build a home. It's a tool, but it does not make you an architect, electrician, or a plumber.

Shipping is very complicated. Services offered by USPS, UPS, FedEx, Amazon, etc... have teams of skilled programmers who build, update and regularly improve their systems at considerable costs per year.  Maybe the OP should partner with existing online shipping platforms instead of trying to do this solo.

There's nothing in Dreamweaver that can do this.
