I think there's two questions here:
1) How to start a side business?
Make something people want, charge money for it, and figure out how to market it. Not necessarily in that order.
2) Where to start with front-end tech?
Use as little of it as possible. Plain old HTML, and forms that submit to a server are all you really need. No fancy JavaScript. CSS is nice, and probably a bit more important but also not strictly required.
I say this as someone who makes a living writing JS/Node and charges well over $50/hr. After your project is bringing in money, then you can look into learning front-end fancyness. Or just hire me ;)
