Issues setting up shopify development

Issues setting up shopify development

I am having issues setting up shopify development just by following the docs, and watching some tutorials, I am running into errors trying to connect with the CLI in the terminal, some test html is not showing on the frontend to check if everything is connected properly, so I am probably not doing it the right way, and these tutorials are on mac, or before the latest shopify CLI and are outdated already, so I am trying to merge everything together and its clearly not working. I don't know if I need a partner account or a normal account, because it looks like its bugged when I run a command like: shopify theme dev --store {store-name}

 

 

I get this invalid_target error when trying to connect to my shopify account with the CLI.

 

What I want to do is:

I am trying to create a theme using dawn, which I want to customize in vs code, to look like a design I made in figma, and then publish/transfer it to a store/account with a paid plan. If someone could share the steps to basically set everything up to the point where I can start with custom development that would be amazing.

 

Thank you!

@Kaiya That's not what I am asking, could you please write out the steps on what you would do to set this up.
