Great article! I started by learning Python instead of the typical HTML-CSS-JS way. So I can build nice scripts to do nice stuff (like scraping, analyzing social media data, conecting multiple APIs to do whatever, etc.) but I can't build a simple good looking website lol. Btw, I don't know if I regret, because now I'm learning front-end and I think it's easier for me now that I know some good stuff on a backend language, and even better, because I write my front-end code while I'm thinking about my back-end (and how to connect each other), and vice versa. So I think there isn't one way to learn to code, there are lot of ways, and the good thing is that each way can bring you to very different scenarios.
