Where to put the admin dashboard of an e-commerce website?
I want to build an e-commerce website but I don’t know where to make the admin dashboard.
Do I make it a separate website with a separate domain
Or do I make it a separate website with sub-domain (ex. admin.myshop.con)
Or in the the same website (ex. myshop.com/admin or myshop.com/admin/dashboard )

yes, yes and yes
any works
but honestly... if you don't know this, maybe it's too early to try to make an e-commerce website
like, too early by a few years
This has also confused me, how to choose between routes and domains?
Some websites have routes, some have domains
you choose it based on convenience and which one is easier and if your host allows free sub-domains with free ssl certificates
having on a different sub-domain will separate the cookies, which may be desirable
if you use node or something, you might have to handle the sub-domain differently - probably a whole different node instance dedicated for it
