Hello Chloe, also learning VueJS at the moment which I really appreciate. I am coming from backend (PHP) so I had to first learn JavaScript basics.

What i will recommend you is to focus on VueJS and after that, when you are able to make all your ideas with it, you can give a try to other frameworks.

For learning things about JS (Basics / Frameworks / etc...) I highly recommend FrontEndMasters. Will cost you 30$ a month but the quality of the courses are insane.

Hi Anthony,

Firstly thanks for the reply. I'm currently learning through pluralsight and am enjoying it I have used teamtreehouse in the past but there have very little content on Vue currently. I've also tried freecodecamp (more than once) and have picked a couple of things but have never managed to stick to it.

I have heard some very good things about FrontEnd Masters is there a free trial I could perhaps try before committing?

I'd like to learn some PHP/a bit of Wordpress eventually (everyone seems to be using laravel these days?) but very much focused on frontend at moment.

No free trial ... But i can assure, FEM is pure gold.

Next it all depend of your career choices. If you want to be a front-end developer, so stick to front-end. And learn a bit about back-end if you need to.

Yep Laravel is a good framework. Used a lot. As I am in France, the main PHP framework is Symfony. Wich a bit more hard to learn.

For Laravel, I recommend "Coder's Tape" YouTube channel. You will learn all the basics, and more !

Laravel + VueJS seems to be a good choice, there is a lot of demand.

Also when you will be good at Vue, check VueJobs :D
