My 2c:

Divide and conquer

Learning this stuff can get overwhelming pretty quickly if you try to do it all at once. Especially when the new tech you want to learn has dependencies on a million other things that you also discover need learning.

Start with a high level overview of what you need to learn to get the picture in your head, think 'shallow but wide'.

Then pick out the main concepts (eg MVC) and learn about that, so you have an idea of the reasons for the way things are being done how they are.

Next pick the specific framework - start with the basics for the -dependencies- for it; there's no point in working through a tutorial if you don't have the assumed knowledge. And then move on to progressing through learning the actual framework.

Don't forget Stackoverflow - you'll be able to find answers there. Any most of all, good luck!
