I recommend starting by doing the React tutorial then doing the NextJS tutorial. Even if you choose to use other frameworks/tools, most of them are riffs on these.
We use both React and NextJS. I learned both this way a few years ago coming from a a career of writing 40% of my code in C, 40% in C++, and 20% in golang.
:) this could get spicy.

Thanks. Of the research I've done -- NextJS was where I was leaning...
What about HTML/CSS? Last I was in the game was Bootstrap, but is there a good reason to be learning something new?

If you've worked in ops, configuration files are a lot like HTML/css. This declarative, static markup. React abstracts HTML away almost entirely by kind of subsuming it. For CSS google/chatgpt is your friend. In either case, google/chatgpt is your friend.
For CSS, we use bootstrap but a lot of folks use tailwind. There are millions of flavors of these CSS libraries that do a lot of the boilerplate stuff.
