Is it a bad idea to jump into more complex programs too soon?

Node.js
  1. A hosted REST-API ready to respond to your AJAX requests.
    Step 1: *Learn something new*. Take the twitter example. Don't know where to start? Start with the UI, learn how to make text appear, create text input boxes, adding buttons, etc. If you use Vue, React, Angular, try creating bindings, (e.g. a list of items that updates when the underlying array updates). Don't worry about hooking them up just play around with laying things out. Learn how to make HTTP requests from Javascript. Try connecting to Reqres so you can try the different methods out.

  2. Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications
    BTW ignore PHP. Client-side manipulation of the DOM is here to stay, server-side rendered static pages are out the window. My beginner recommendation is nodeJS with Vue.js front end. This simplifies front and backend development into a single language, and gives you a flexible app framework that makes a lot of seemingly simple things *actually* simple.
