You have to decide what kind of developer you want to be. A hobbyist would probably go with the most out of the box stuff, so would use something like rails. You could be a specialist developer who only knows one framework and language. Or if you want to be a total pro you will want to learn all the frameworks because you are very adverse to your coworkers knowing anything you don't.

I completely agree and I do want to be a total pro but am too spread out. I need to start focusing on certain aspects...maybe learn the ins-and-outs of a complete framework?..like Rails while continually learning more and more in-depth HTML, CSS, and JS? I guess my aim is to be a full-stack developer but am struggling finding my footing on the server-side of things.
