It depends on your background and expertise level.
Usually most of us do DB-related programming. I mean, there's always data, and we need to manage it according to business logic. The basic language usually gives you data structures, data access options, template engines.You need to send, collect, verify, manage and save or process the data. All these steps are only to generate the expected result. When you start developing an application 25% language and 75% frameworks kills you. I think frameworks will take most of your time, not the programming languages. ;)

Yes true. With so many languages and frameworks and libraries (talking mostly in frontend context) being introduced every day, its difficult to keep up.

How you you suggest one should go about learning a framework. Any tips tricks or approach you follow ?
