Choosing technologies for a project can be tough. It's generally a matter of preference. If you have a technology for doing ecommerce that you're familiar with, I'd say just go with that.

If you do decide to go with a jamstack, a nice thing about it is that it focuses on generating static content from templates (the 'm' in jam stands for markup), which generally makes your site load really fast - as opposed to using a content management system like wordpress to dynamically generate everything.

To make an e-commerce site, you'll need to augment your static content with some dynamic behaviour by using javascript and apis (the 'j' and 'a' in jam).
