Hi guys, I have been learning javascript, html and css for the past 2 months(built some little projects and landing pages). I also have some experiences with java core and oop(~3 months) before learning javascript. My question is that recently I have an offer for a temporary position, low pay but the technologies stack that is used in their apps are flutter and php for backend. I talked with the hiring manager last week that I will be given 2 weeks of training before asked to do some projects. I felt that going over and starting again on new languages without reaching a certain milestone in my current language(javascript, html, and css) is a little bit tiring and isn't good. On the other hand, I am a self-taught developer trying to switch career into tech. Should I accept this offer just to get some experiences first or should I keep on continuing my javascript progress ? I have just finished a foundation courses, and now looking on to learn react and currently considering a backend programming language(I am in favor of Node js).

that 2 weeks of training can be invaluable.

php is easy but flutter on the other hand........

That's why I am still considering it...I am thinking about the time, effort and energy that I'm gonna be spending on flutter. My mid term goals is to get good in javascript, react and nodejs. I've seen some videos on youtube though that they don't recommend being a full stack software developer. Maybe learning php for backend somehow in someway will at least be beneficial for me.

And yeah..in other words, going back and forth .... yep...that 2 weeks of training maybe invaluable
