Should I follow multiple Node.js courses at the same time?

Yes. Node.js is JavaScript on the server, so weak JavaScript fundamentals make Node.js twice as hard. Be comfortable with functions, closures, promises, async/await, and ES modules before starting.
With solid JavaScript, you can learn Node.js basics in 2 to 4 weeks. Building a real backend with Express, databases, and auth takes 2 to 3 months of consistent practice.
Both, but build more than you watch. After every concept, write the code from scratch in a blank file. Watching is passive; building is what actually teaches you.
