It's so hard to answer really. All people have such differing levels on knowledge and most of the time it's a crazy mix. If you know nothing about coding you might want to at least learn how to read most basic code, just look up introductions to some programming languages, you'll quickly figure out how it all works on an intuitive level. Then you could actually go straight ahead and start thinking about your start-up. Based on features you'll have identify technologies you'll need to use and then try to find out how to achieve that functionality using those technologies. You'll need to be really comfortable with Google. Always look everything up. If getting through one tutorial requires you to open 20 others - so be it. Too many people are looking for complete introductory texts that will take you through the whole process step by step. It just doesn't work that way. Books are very tempting for that reason. You can just pick it up and read the whole thing, but well, it feels easy for a reason.
