So I have a lot of time on my hand and want to create a web application with a mobile app. Im completely fine on the mobile app side with experience in Java and Android. Feed me some JSON and I can make the app do what I want. I also understand HTML, CSS, and know my way around Photoshop just fine. I have some knowledge of mySQL and JS but Im picking them up just fine.
However I'm completely lost on the server part and I'm not even sure where to get started. I would like to use Python for the backend and JSON for the API but other than that I really don't know what I should do. I only have extremely limited experience using JSP in one course that was just meant to be a very shallow overview of the process. Everything on the server was already setup for us and we were basically just writing Java to display what we wanted. Any tips would be great. Recommendations on what version of Linux to install, simple tutorials and information on the server side. Anything would be great.
