"You probably don’t even know what skills you need, so don’t worry about it. Start with what you already know." For my first startup, I created the whole site from scratch. I had developed software for years and thought I had a pretty good handle on things. I did know some things, but was surprised by how many gaps there were in my knowledge. Coding something from the front end all the way to the back was a great way to learn. That's not to mention the business and legal knowledge I gained. There's so much involved in even getting a small project going, that you can really only learn by doing.
