I just found out about The Odin Project, a self-paced online course to learn full stack web development. There are two paths: one is Ruby on Rails and the other is full JavaScript and nodejs. I am leaning more towards Ruby but I wanted to get some more opinions from folks in the field.

    I just started my TOP journey recently too! I was also wondering which path people recommended, so I’m glad to see someone else on Lemmy asked! I’m going to have consider a little harder as I was leaning towards Ruby on Rails path.

      I was kind of learning towards Ruby myself simply because the language syntax looks to me to be saner and easier. I realize I am up against quite a challenge developing skills and knowledge in the area of full stack development so I obviously I don’t want things to be too challenging. However, the overwhelming advice I have been given is JavaScript is the way to go and Ruby is for niche stuff.
