WebSockets 101
Disclaimer: I didn't know much about Websockets 1 week ago, all the experience I had with Websockets was when I developed a chat application back in 2016 using a JS framework that tried to be a Ruby on Rails implementation called SailsJS, so I decided to research about this technology and consumed multiple resources which I will link in this blog post and each section.

Building GitHub with Ruby on Rails
I was just talking about this topic of whether we really has any Rails-influenced JS frameworks out there in the wild. And I struggled to come up with anything off the top of my head other than Sails.js [1]. RedwoodJS looks interesting, what about it in particular do you find exciting?

College Student -- First steps, help?
First hurdle. ExpressJS isn't a great framework on it's own for building web sites. You need to cobble together some combination of a view engine, templating etc otherwise out of the box you'll end up handcrafting HTML which I don't think is what you want right now. I'm not up on the latest server-side web frameworks and don't think now is the time to get into react + nodejs. So I'll just suggest Sails: https://sailsjs.com/. Follow their intro guides to get yourself a basic website with text entry.
