> I want to teach myself how to program Great! > Should I build a mobile or Web app? As artellectual says, it depends on what you want to do, between those two. But there are many more types of software beyond web or mobile apps. You could write personal programs that run locally, for your own use (and which are a good way to learn, since you're scratching your own itch). There's math, science, embedded, financial, etc. Any of these might be standalone programs, or they might run on a web server with a browser front end. You might program on the front or the backend.
