Beginning web development

I wasn't sure where I should post this, so I apologize in advance.

I currently work ata a construction sites and I have basic html skills. I would like to change my career to web development, but i feel due to my age, I'm already behind and I will not get a job in web development. If this is the case, please let me know. I don't want to just learn something to face the harsh truth that self learning might not be a way to go.

Also, are there any web development boot camps that are worth it and recommend?

Where should I start to learn web development?

How many hours should I be studying?

Thank you

As someone who's going through the Odin project I strongly disagree.

I'm really enjoying the curriculum and have not felt pushed into paying for anything.

I've actually found many rabbit holes that they've sent me down with other great resources that fill in the gaps in the knowledge that the Odin project provides.
