I need to build a shed for my parents. Our old one is on a concrete slab. The shed dimensions are 10 ft wide by 9 ft long. I've done a bit of construction work before but nothing major. Do you guys have any suggestions on what I should do? Like shed plans or getting a shed kit or something

I'm pretty sure this is the definitive work on sheds.

Be more specific once you have an idea.
Be more specific regarding the requirements of space, intended use and budgeting.

it's not that complicated, a few framed walls, flashing around the outside and on the top of some rafters, simple shingling job...boom, done

Its a generic shed. I guess the most important thing would be for it to have a big door to easily take the lawn mower out and for it to be completely sealed off so bugs cant get inside. Probably will store crap like yard tools, maybe extra paint, fertilizer, ect.

I'm guessing they want to spend around $1000-$2000 on it?

I don't really have much construction experience.

We have an electric saw, sander, drill, and hammer drill for tools. Anything else I will need to rent or buy.

if the link doesn't work google "shed of doom". Amazingly after 2 years it's still standing.

Look Matthias Wandel's videos on how to build a shed.
