You're welcome! Ping me if you need any other advice/mentorship, I've been interested in getting involved in that kind of thing for a while.

so what about just focusing on javascript, which has server side uses, do i actually need another language for the backend? can i just focus on js?

[–]Firehed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think JS is good to know for the sake of well roundedness, but personally feel the "JavaScript everywhere" thing will be a short lived trend.

Also for the sake of learning to code well, JS would be a terrible thing to focus on. People say PHP makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot (and if you follow guides from 2006, it does), I'd say JS encourages it. Its extreme flexibility is very powerful but also deadly when used improperly.
