Not the person you asked - but I did it with those resources while holding down a more than full time engineering job (not in software). Most people don't have the drive to do it on their own and that's fine too. Getting guided through a 3 month bootcamp is a straightforward way of learning the basics of software development. With that said, I can't say enough good things about developing the skills of self-education. I was homeschooled K-12, so I probably have a leg up in that department.
