1) Become familiar with the authoritative source of information on web technologies that is the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN)
2) Gain a good understanding of the three foundation web technologies (HTML, CSS and JavaScript) before venturing into more advanced technologies such as React/Vue/Angular and SCSS etc. But you do not have to be an expert.
3) Find a good source for up to date changes in the core technologies. Examples I use include 2ality, Kevin Powell and Google Chrome Developers especially the HTTP 203 series.
4) Practice your art but developing small side projects and venture into Open-Source projects when you feel ready for a challenge.
