I need to investigate Astro's "content-loader" API.
That coupled with server-islands feels like really promising kit.

Be careful when picking coding for the first time, folks.
"Negative Transfer" - a kind of pedagogic entrapment is real (see @july's reference to the famous 1981 paper below).
While making a bad choice is not a show stopper (an old dog can learn new tricks of course) you will likely always see things through the grooves of the language you choose to lay down in your mind first, for the rest of your life.
And so you have this one-time powerful choice to make.
Choose wisely friends.
Given that learning a language is always going to be hard, your choice of whether to learn a powerful one, or not....and then having to unlearn an unpowerful language, is potentially a much larger cost creatively over the long run. PG made reference to this in "Hackers and Painters."
PS: "frameworks" are not "languages" so there is that double jeopardy for the uninitiated to beware of. Good luck friends...learning to code will change your mind in profound (and hopefully wonderful for you) ways. Full encouragement
