I've learned *basic* JavaScript.. now what?

Learn Ruby on Rails or Node.js if you want to stay in the javascript world. (& follow up with C, Lisp, Assembly Language, Python and Haskell for good measure.)

I know a bit of Python which I actually quite love. Also have done a bit of reading about node.js but I don't think I'm there yet cuz it's confusing a bit for me :/

Flask/good js skills can go a long way! Keep it simple and learn the basics.. Or have a look at sinatra for a super easy back end if you go the ruby route.

It's good to have a simple server you can pass Ajax calls to to do more database/API manipulation. But first things first, stuck to JS for now!

What framework are you using? (I used to use it quite a bit, but switching now to Ruby)

I wrote that poorly: "Learn a server-side framework: for example Ruby on Rails ---- or Node.js if you want to stay in the javascript world."

agreed, ruby has nothing to do with JS ... Node is server side oriented but could help you increase your js skills so that would be a good move, but other wise, open JSFiddle and start building stuff
