I think the first step is to solidify your Front-end skills, get comfortable between the server-side and client-side JavaScript and experiment lots with all the different things like React Native and Electron and pick which you feel suites your needs.

Hi! I would say to go on the Front End Web Development course and Full Stack JavaScript course (and if you want do design.. the Web Designing Course). I think you should learn this because you can now, as you said with electron, build apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for Desktop applications cross-OS, and I'm sure there is something out there for mobile development too.
