What would you say is the "ideal" learning path to be able to sit down and build just like www.codewithantonio.com does w his clones? I would LOVE to be able to 1) pick a site/app to build/clone, 2) plan it out, 3) do it. The real question I guess I'm asking is--what would I need to learn to get to that point? Example answer: "Zeb, you should learn in this order--master javascript but don't worry about learning these parts of javascript [list of parts to ignore], intermediate React but don't worry about react router bc you'll use next router, beginner node, and then just focus on next from that point." I've played around with coding for the last 2 years with exposure to javascript, react, node, and then things like salesforce and wordpress and have worked with dev teams on probably 100 projects in my day job; but at this point, to continue forward in life the way I want to, I want to build my skillset to be able to do what I've described above. The challenge I'm having is not wasting time learning a bunch of stuff that doesn't really apply--not learning react router if I'll be using next router as an example. Sorry for the long post but I've been really stuck trying to figure out an optimal path to achieve my goal! Thank you all very much. Truly.

you already have the basic knowledge required. now the most effective method to learn skills is to make projects.
so just do it.
you will face difficulties, just like anyone. the process where you use your existing basic knowledge and your google/gpt skills will be the most beneficial way for you to learn more advanced and niche concepts
