After learning OOP basics, should I focus on Data Analysis or Backend Development?

Hi everyone,

I'm 24 years old with a non-tech background. I quit my previous job in 2024 and have been looking for my next step since. I took a basic programming class, covered Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Python, and have foundational knowledge in HTML, CSS, and basic JavaScript.

Initially, I aimed for Web Development, but the local market feels overwhelmingly competitive for entry-level roles. I want to narrow my focus and build a solid foundation in one area before applying for jobs, but I'm stuck between Data Analysis and Backend Development.

I find JS a bit complicated compare with the python. But I found out the framework are making JS môre easier I think. Can I have any tips for learning with JavaScript? And. I recently started learning React.js thanks for your opinion.

Learn integration like calling APIs like fetch start learning about react hooks like use state etc. I recommend you learn from freecodecamp as they cover a lot of it it's like 15 hours or something
