Question

I want to create my own named wordpress theme, mainly design the header & footer area.

For the sidebar area: I prefer using a widge plugin to set the sidebar
For the page content, I would use a pagebuilder(like:beaver builder or Wpbakery)
and with woocommerce to display our products(just displaying, not sell online).

Consider my no coding experience, which is the workable way for me? thanks

Most workable approach is to use a solid theme like GeneratePress, then create a child theme to change it's behavior.

Building a theme is easy.

Keeping a theme secure + working across all PHP + WordPress changes/updates is a full time job.

Better to build a child theme, especially with no coding experience.
