Most common does not mean it's a requirement for having to learn it. That would go with anything.
I would say though that a Console App will give you a better base for programming knowledge, you can focus strictly on the code without much of a GUI. And it's more closely related to other languages as well, having a Main function where the program starts and ends when it's done everything it's needed to do in that scope.
