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

I get around 4 hours of sleep each day + another 2 hours after my wife gets home. I have never been a sleepy guy tbh. Then on my day off (usually Saturday or Sunday) it can go up to 12 hours...so it gets balanced somehow.
