That's really awesome that you already built something with your knowledge. I learned HTML/CSS when I was 13/14 but didn't really do anything useful with it for several years.
One really important thing I've learned since then is don't read HN too much.
You'll get too caught up in "best practices" or the hottest new libraries that you won't ever finish a product. It's a habit I'm working on, but it can be summarized as doing "Enough for Now"
1. Assume there will always be tools that are better than the ones you have now.
2. Assume that events in the world will continue to happen or not happen
regardless of whether you learn about them immediately.
3. Assume that you understand and control an embarrassingly minute percentage of
the universe.
4. Assume that none of this matters if you’re determined to make something you
care about today.
