I couldn't find a clear answer on this: What's the difference between a Magento Website and a Store View?
On a Magento website level the merchant setting up basic business logic which includes choosing a payment, shipping methods, currency and price). The main difference between Magento Website and Store is that the first one contains only customer data with no products and categories.
What is the store view in Magento 2? In Magento 2 you can create a website with multiple stores different in design, purpose, products, etc. Store Views correspondingly are the variations of the same store in different languages. Every Magento 2 store initially has a default store view.
Store views are typically used to make the store available in different locales. Shoppers can use the language chooser in the header of the store to change the store view.
The Stores menu manages settings that are used less frequently, but referenced throughout your Adobe Commerce or Magento Open Source installation, including setting up the store hierarchy, configuration, sales and order settings, tax and currency, product attributes, product review ratings, and customer groups.
There's actually three things: A Website, a Store and a Store View.
The most important part about Websites is that each websites has its unique customer and order base.
Stores can be used to define for example different (looking) stores with the same information.
Store Views are mostly used to handle different languages on your website. You will typically have one Store View per language.
