To learn front-end development, you start off with HTML, then CSS, and then Javascript. Once you've learned those, you can move on to other things like frameworks (Bootstrap, React, Angular, Vue, etc). Frameworks you can start learning once you've learned the basics of the three. Frameworks make lives easier.
