Probably the best advise is to learn as much as possible, but focus on basics. I feel people often mistake knowledge for skill and that harms them in the long run.
If you learn a concept, you can use it in anything you create. If you learn a framework, you will have to learn a new one in 5 years. Focus on transferable skills.
