You should start by building the frame of your site by building the html structure first. You can do that by taking your web design draw several boxes and give it its html tags. You start with the body and continue from outside in, afterwards give the tags its classes or Ids. With css or a framework you can continue building the page structure, afterwards you can start with the styling. As soon as you have a static site with all its styling you can continue making it dynamic to apply DRY. Then you can also start add some interactive parts with JS. This should be a good first start. You can also build websites with angular, react, Django, slim, Laravel it all depends on the purpose of the website.

Hope my advice is helpful.

Best advice is just start learning. From the top to the bottom, you'll need to know html, css, js, and a server side language. What you're wanting to do is no small feat, so just jump in and start learning. Tracks at Treehouse are a great way to logically walk through a set of courses.

The other advice is to befriend other developers, and see if you find friends who can help take some of the work load.
