What are we building? Using hardhat, we will deploy a smart contract to the goerli testnet, this contract creates a token and also is able to send these tokens to other address. For the frontend we will use react, for the interaction with the smart contract we will use Metamask and web3-react. Finally, for the analytics of our dapp we will be using sumer.

Make sure you have some understanding of HTML/CSS. Check out Automate The Boring Stuff to learn some Python and then check out Real Python to learn some Django for your backend stuff. From there you're going to want to learn Solidity and for that I suggest checking out Crypto Zombies. Then you can learn a JavaScript frontend framework like React which has cool packages for web3 like web3-react. I'm on mobile and probably butchered this but it should give you some idea.
