You say you can write html -- that is good Can you set up and administer a web server such as apache? if not, you probably have 1 to 6 months of learning there Once you learn python you will also need to learn a web framework - may take you a week to 6 months to learn this to the level you would require. I'm betting on 6 months at least Finally, you need to collect all of that information you wish you make available. That in itself is a huge undertaking To be perfectly honest, this is much too large a project for you. First read some python tutorials and learn how to code in python. If you work it every day, maybe you can kind of understand what its about in a very superficial sense in a month. However, if you are having fun learning, then add a new small piece to learn.
