Please, whatever you eventually choose to do, make sure to continually reference this amazing website whenever you are implementing any interactable part.

https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/

It has cheat sheets for securely implementing everything from login forms, preventing common vulnerabilities (at least look at sheets for Top 10), forgoten password flows, storing passwprds and more.

From the top of my head, If you are building it from a scratch without a framework, you will definitely want to at least look into cheat sheets about input validation, injection prevention, password storage, session management, file upload and authorization with authentication.

They are not that long, and should prevent the most critical and common vulnerabilities you will probably have, where the prevention isn’t too difficult, once you know about it.

I’m not sure why you’re getting downvotes exactly.

A basic tutorial on web development like Sleepless One suggested is definitely a good place to start, just to get a basic overview of what you’re getting into. I personally learn best by doing rather than by learning. What I mean by that is if I sit down to try to learn… say… the C programming language, I’m probably not going to learn much from it, let alone retain it. But if I decide I want to write a game in C and start writing the game even from what little I know about C, I’ll learn as I go. Not to say for me there’s no benefit in a “learn C” tutorial, but if you’re anything like me, I’d recommend switching to doing the specific website you have in mind as early as possible rather than trying to “learn web development” before switching to the project that is ultimately your end goal.

Beyond that, you’ll want to avoid falling into a trap of doing what feels to you like it’ll work rather than what’s “best practices” for “the industry.” So the other thing I think will benefit you searching-wise is to look for information about not just how to make it (technically) work but also how to do the thing you want to do “right.”

At least that’s my recommendation.

Beyond that, are there any existing websites that closely approximate what you have in mind for an end goal for your project? If so, could you share one? I think it might help us with more specific recommendations.

Open browser, select search engine of choice, click in the search box, type, “make a dynamic website from scratch,” click search.

MDN offers webdev tutorials. While I’ve never tried their tutorials out, the MDN docs are really good and they’re my go to when I need to figure out how a specific brower-side API works.

First create the HTML DOM, then beautify with CSS, then script stuff with JS for functionality you can’t do with HTML and Backend.

And read up on HTML tags, please. There’s too much div-only crap already. And better go basic than fancy; fancy is more technical debt that blows up (or leaks your users passwords) along the road

Don’t listen to the naysayers, they never did a website from scratch. And the usual frameworks have gone complex to a point that learning them and adjusting them to your needs eats more time than creating a basic website from scratch, while your websites performance and accessibility tanks. Imagine, a button not working just because you blocked third-party scripts!
