How to use Shopware?


So, context.

I am a newly hire in a company as a web developer, and it seems that i am the only Software Enigneer here.
the company has a store that is mainly managed by the marketing team using shopware.
I was told to take an idea how shopware works and get fimiliar with it.

My background:
I am a junior software engineer. I am used to full stack apps using Next.js (node.js) And Symfony(PHP)

I am a bit confused now on how to work with Shopware.
so i have some questions if someone can help me?

from what i undersatnd is that Shopware is basically a CMS for ecommerce. meant for non techincal people to set up shops using themes and plugins.
there is also Frontends which is API that one can consume in a VUE project.

so baiscally there are two ways to make a store

StoreFront (plugins and themes)
Headless api using frontend.

so the first question is…is my understanding correct?

second question is… if that was correct, does that mean I am not required to have a backend? I just can consume the apis and that is it?

answering me will greatly help.
so ,Thank you in advance.
