Hey Josh,

Here is a good link to a project that popped up on HN a while back http://www.bentobox.io , basically pick one of the topics and click toggle what to learn next, and it will show you a sort of progression.

As far as tutorials, just google the technologies name + for beginners or something similar. (there are also links to instructions in the site I posted)

As far as where to go for what it really depends on your end goal and who you're working with.

I.E. for web development, some people swear by Django or Rails or some PHP framework, all depending on their use case and the expertise of the people they're working with.

Figure out what you want to make, research what tool would be best to make it, then learn that tool and the languages/frameworks that compose it.

If you're just looking to make a basic web app, I would recommend using Sinatra (Ruby), Flask (Python), or Express(NodeJS). All provide a very simple configuration to get to the "Hello, world" point, however are extensible enough that you can use them to learn more advanced tools, technologies, etc.

If you want to chat more feel free to shoot me an email at [e-mail]

Cheers,

Martin
