If you want to be a solo/technical founder, I'd consider learning to build web apps a great first step - it's accessible, cross-platform, and flexible. There's also no shortage of resources online. On the frontend, React is commonly used and generally a safe choice. On the backend, some nodejs with heroku or docker should give you a gentle introduction (with the added advantage that you'll be learning the same language for both front and backend -- one less thing to worry about as you're starting).

Thanks! Do you have any suggested tutorials that are particularly easy to follow?
I really liked Andrew mead's javascript course, and his react course. They are both on o'reilly learning, so you might have access to that through a local library etc
Check Wes Boss's videos on Js node and React.Some of them are free, some are paid.
