So here I am, 20 years old with an app idea. I want to bring it to life, but i have no experience in code, no capital to invest in anyone to develop it and a lot of free time on my hands.

Right now, I'm currently living at home with my parents. I have no job but do make a small income from eBay. Not a lot but i get by. This only takes a couple hours a week or so to run, if that.

I'm also fairly good at maths and problem solving, always exceeded mentally in this area and enjoyed solving problems. I have read that learning code is very much mathematical and solving problems, so i don't think it would be a headache for me to do.

That being said, i feel like i'd want to learn code anyway to take control of my app/business as much as i can. I'd rather myself mess up and learn from it to improve rather than paying someone else for something i might not even want.

My plan? Save as much as I can for the next 6-9 months and in the meantime, learn how to code and develop my app. Then, whatever funds i have available i can invest into the app, pay a developer and hopefully get it moving to where i want it to be.

So my questions are;
Is this a good idea?
If yes, where should i start learning how to code for my app?
