Answer 2

Frontend web 3 - HTML, CSS, JS; really JS is a language and HTML/CSS are more akin to a technology, as they are not Turing complete.

Backend web at least 2 - one for server + another for database.

Native app programming at least one, and another for database if needed, and complex app or games may include a scripting language like Lua.

Modern web apps are capable of most of what native apps can do and JS is relatively simple, but it's also slow compared to many other languages, and makes some things more difficult like parallelization.

It'd be best to look into different app programming options along with web and web app programming, compare and contrast based on what you want to do.
