Not sure you'll see this but honestly man, if you have friends in the field just ask them, plain and simple. Not saying this is you, but often people don't go this route because pride, etc.

If you don't know people in the field, chances are there are software people where you work - some are douchy to people just learning (pfft, you think you can learn this craft in months?) but others are willing and eager to help others. Find them and again, just ask them to point you in the right direction.

Lastly, find a class. Nothing crazy like a 25k bootcamp or anything, but find something like building a site end to end in 2 days or something like that.

A lot of this stuff is tribal knowledge and not captured well in tutorials. There are excellent tutorials for learning the technical things, but not necessarily for putting everything together into a working app.

Hope that helps!
