I can't point to PHP libraries and what not, but here're some general words.

I'd start to learn with Python. It's newbie friendly, has a vast amount of libraries, and it scales with what you want to do. Back end servers, web sites, desktop apps. Even Eve. Although it's not the fastest language it's certainly one of the easiest languages to get into.

Depending on who you ask, you'll be told coding is either a hobby, a craft, an art, a science or just a job. I think it boils to attention to detail and avoiding procrastination. To help get into that mindset, I tend to recommend this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pragmatic-Programmer-Andrew-Hunt/dp/020161622X

Once you get onto the path, you'll be buying lots of books. Worse, hording them.

Once you've got the basics - got a couple of apps running successfully - I'd suggest you get a firmer, more "computer sciencey" bedding: if you're like me, "complex" is often a good thing. CS will help you make complex things run faster and in less development time.

And MIT just happen to use python and they publish some old lectures: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-0001-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-in-python-fall-2016/ If maths is not your strength here's a really simple rule: just keep an eye on ratios, such as "how much work can I achieve in 1 step?" and you'll have beaten many developers.

And that rolls into the final point: be sure you want to do this. Many have tried, and normally chilled people will rage in frustration. Like Eve, software needs commitment & time.

The very best of luck in your travels.
