Full Stack JavaScript is one of the tracks available on Treehouse. This will teach you how to run Node, Express and other JS technologies.

For Server side programming there's a welath of material out there for PHP, Ruby, and Python. :-)

Hi Abdullah, it's great you want to explore full stack web development. From my perspective of a designer who has started focusing more on development I would say start with the areas that are of interest to you. Focusing on the front end first is a nice intro to building sites and then once you have a handle on that expanding into the back end via javascript makes sense since it can be used both on the front and back-ends.

If you want to start on learning the back-end systems Wordpress is a great way to get introduced to PHP, a common back-end language that ties in nicely to html for a beginner.

And yes Treehouse has great courses that relate to both of these approaches. The Full stack Javascreipt course is great as well as the Wordpress and PHP lessons.
