All items on the list sound reasonable, but I think it should be ordered the other way around. Begin with play and build.
If you spend to much time on reading and research on the beginning without actually getting your feet wet you might get overwhelmed.
- Jcasc 16y agoI've fallen into this trap as of late... definitely need to shut up and tinker... There are so many wavering viewpoints and opinions on topics like Rails vs Django, what to use when, does your framework hinder acquisition possibilities, etc, that you can easily wander off path; Above all else: Play, build, learn.
