Hey, Badger.

I'm doing just that - web/software development. I had first studied web languages and networking about twelve years ago and really got into it after I was furloughed.

Some of the front-end languages are not hard to learn, but there is a steep learning curve when it comes to advanced stuff. Nowadays, HTML5 is the big buzzword, but I would say that JavaScript is very important to know as a corollary.

Please let me know if I can help to answer any questions you might have.
